An excellent Tuesday at Down Royal saw both my picks win, in the 2.25 Limerick Lace was 3rd early going 2nd from the 6th. The 8/11 favourite travelled well to lead from 2 out, she stayed on easily pulling away on the run-in to beat Irish Blaze by 8 lengths. In the later race Angels Dawn ran well to dispute the lead from 2 out. He was passed soon after sitting 2nd at the last, he rallied and regained the lead in the final strides beating Ballykeel by 1/2 a length.
The meeting that should have taken place at Fairyhouse last Thursday now happens on Wednesday where on a 7 race card there are 2 main events.
1.23: Follow Fairyhouse On Social Media Handicap Chase.
7: Sweet Will: A promising type who achieved his career best win in a handicap hurdle at Cheltenham 75 days ago. That was his 2nd victory over hurdles in the space of 3 days and having had plenty of time to recover he should be hard to beat returning to this sphere as he looks for a hat-trick.
1.53: Easter Festival 8-10 April Novice Hurdle.
2: Spanish Harlem: A useful hurdler who won his only start in France before transferring to Willie Mullins and running well on Irish debut when 3rd at Gowran Park 60 days ago. He will have learnt from that promising run and with his yard having a good spell and improvement expected he can build on that here picking up his first Irish win.
