Fairyhouse

Today, April 22, 2025HurdleClass 12m7fSoft

A whole host with claims in this red-hot handicap with the suggestion being FAIRYLAND OPERA. This is undoubtedly her toughest assignment to date, yet she confirmed her well-being with a comfortable success in novice company at Tramore 9 days ago and, completely unexposed at this sort of trip, she appeals as the type to progress further back in handicaps. Road To Home, Dont Tell Jack and Andy Amo are others to consider. Fishery Lane and Ayiko complete a long shortlist.

    Verdict
    Lightly-raced maiden. 8/1, good sixth of 16 in handicap hurdle at Naas (19.5f, soft) 44 days ago, not knocked about. Very much the type to be suited by 2½m+ and he still has more to offer.

    Very useful bumper performer who built on his hurdling promise to land 20f maiden here in January. Sweated up and ultimately pulled up in Albert Bartlett Novices' Hurdle at Cheltenham (3m) on most recent start and another who will appreciate this switch to handicaps.

    Bumper winner proved a different proposition when winning on handicap hurdle debut at Navan (25f) in December, relishing the greater test of stamina. Solid in-the-frame efforts both starts since, fourth of 17 in handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter (23.3f, soft) 38 days ago. Looks competitive on form.

    Fair form when placed 3 times over hurdles last season and he didn't need to improve when winning 11-runner maiden hurdle at Ayr (20.5f) in January, comfortably having been allowed the run of the race. Could do better at this trip returned to handicaps.

    Walk In The Park gelding got off to a successful start in 23f novice hurdle at Fairyhouse in December. Not built on that subsequently, finding Grade 1 Albert Bartlett too hot at Cheltenham last month. This more suitable now handicapping for his all-conquering yard.
