3/12/23 Fairyhouse

 Saturday's winner at Fairyhouse came in the Grade 3 where Risk Belle was 3rd early and despite being hampered 3 out she disputed the lead entering the straight. The 7/4 shot led from 2 out going clear and staying on strongly on the run-in to easily beat Nusret by 3 1/2 lengths. In the days listed race Fighting Fit was 2nd, the 12/1 shot was 5th early improving to sit 3rd after the last. He grabbed 2nd inside the final furlong keeping on without troubling the winner Solness who came home by 6 lengths. 

 There is a 7.30am inspection at Fairyhouse on Sunday morning to determine whether an 8 race card can go ahead. If it passes then 3 Grade one’s top the bill.

1.25: Bar One Racing Royal Bond Novice Hurdle (Grade 1)

1: An Tobar: A highly promising horse who looked an exciting prospect when winning over course and distance on debut 26 days ago. He disputed the lead entering the straight moving to the front 2 out, he kept on well coming home by 4 1/4 lengths. With more improvement to come he can take the step up in class here in his stride and follow up.

2.00: Bar One Racing Drinmore Novice Chase (Grade 1)

3: Letsbeclearaboutit: Has two wins from two runs this season his last was a career best in a Grade 3 at Cork 28 days ago. He led for a second time 2 out eventually beating Mighty Tom by an easy 10 lengths. Another impressive performance like that will see him complete a hat-trick here. 

2.35: Bar One Racing Hatton’s Grace Hurdle (Grade 1)

2: Impaire Et Passe: Was unbeaten over hurdles last season including victories in the Ballymore at Cheltenham and the Grade 1 Champion Chase at Punchestown. Definitely has more to offer and he can take this ahead of what could be a top-class campaign.
