1/12/24 Fairyhouse

 Saturday's best at Fairyhouse came from Kala Conti who was 2nd. The 6/4 favourite was 4th two out taking 3rd at the last. Despite making no impression she kept on moving into 2nd in the closing stages, upfront Anzadam won by 6 1/2 lengths. In the other contest American Mike was 3rd in a race won by The Folkes Tara who beat The King Of Prs by 3/4 of a length. 

 There are another 8 races at Fairyhouse on Sunday with 3 taking centre stage. 

1.35: Bar One Racing Royal Bond Novice Hurdle (Grade 2)

5: Romeo Coolio: An excellent horse who's standout performance so far was a 2nd in the Champion Bumper at the Cheltenham Festival. He won by a very easy 18 lengths on hurdles debut at Down Royal 29 days ago and with more improvement on the cards this top prospect can follow up here. 

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

2: Firefox: A good winner over hurdles who impressed when taking victory on fences debut at Down Royal a month ago. He led from 3 out asserting himself on the run-in and coming home by 3 1/2 lengths. He definitely has a bright future in this sphere and looks like the one to beat here. 

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

3: Teahupoo: A high-class hurdler who won this race for a second consecutive season 12 months ago before going on to take the Stayers Hurdle at Cheltenham. He didn't need to be at his best when completing a hat-trick in a Grade 1 at Punchestown in May and the fact that he goes well fresh means he can make it a 4-timer here.
