Sunday's only winner came at Cork where Bachasson made all the running jumping well. The 6/4 favourite had a 2 length lead before the last keeping on well and comfortably beating Feronily by 3 1/4 lengths. Over at Fairyhouse Magical Zoe finished 5th while in the 4.55 Mighty Potter sadly suffered a fatal fall at the 10th in a race won by Flame Bearer.
The Easter action concludes on Monday with all 3 highlights coming as part of an 8 race card at Fairyhouse.
3.50: Rathberry & Glenview Studs Hurdle (Grade 2)
2: Asterion Forlonge: A high-class horse who returned to hurdling to finish 2nd at Thurles last month. That was his first run in a year and if as expected he improves on that then he has leading claims and will take some stopping here as he looks to go one better.
4.20: McInerney Properties Fairyhouse Chase (Grade 2)
1: Easy Game: An excellent chaser who looked as good as ever when beating stablemate Kemboy in the PWC Champion Chase at Gowran Park when last seen in October. He came home by 2 1/4 lengths and looks like the one to beat here as he aims to make it a hat-trick of wins in this race.
5.00: Boylesports Irish Grand National Chase (Grade A)
7: Thedevilscoachman: Won a Grade 3 at Limerick on his last outing 2 weeks ago leading after the final fence and coming home by 2 1/2 lengths. His jumping improved as the race wore on and if his stamina holds out he can follow up here.
There is also racing at Cork where the main event is at 3.00 the Coolmore N.H. Sires Capri Handicap Chase and my pick goes to number 3 All Those Years.
