Hattons Grace Day at Fairyhouse – what horses will relish the forecast soft ground?

We are in for a stellar day of racing at Fairyhouse on Sunday and you can check out all of our free horse racing tips for the meeting on the website! With soft ground forecast, let’s take a look at horses who should relish conditions.


12.35 Fairyhouse

Narciso Has won a novice hurdle at Auteuil on soft ground and the son of Doctor Dino has to be respected on his first run for Willie Mullins sporting the JP McManus colours. He is short but could be quite decent.


1.05 Fairyhouse

Now Is The Hour relishes soft and was running a huge race in the National Hunt Chase at Cheltenham in March when a faller late on before pulling up in the Irish National. He should improve for his recent spin and looks off a fair mark.

1.35 Fairyhouse

Blake is a perfect two from two on soft ground on the Flat and handles any ground really. Noel Meade’s son of Zoffany easily won a Down Royal maiden hurdle four weeks ago and is no back number in this company.


2.05 Fairyhouse

Romeo Coolio will be many a banker for people out there today. A winner on soft before, the Grade 1 novice hurdle winner was placed at the highest level at Cheltenham and Aintree in the spring. He was always going to make a better chaser, impressing last time, and is exciting.

2.36 Fairyhouse

Ballyburn loves soft. He was a top-class novice hurdler a couple of seasons ago and won a Grade 1 novice chase at Leopardstown in February but ultimately disappointed at Cheltenham and Punchestown. Could take all the beating back hurdling here.
