Fairyhouse Race 8 - Fairyhouse Christmas Party December 12th Point-To-Point Flat Race
CHANSON DU JURY (3) wasted no time getting off the mark on debut over 4828m at Dromahane seven months ago. Not appeared since. Likely to improve and anticipated to run well again. HERON HILL (4) returns from a spell of eight months. Scored first-up when last in work at Monksgrange tackling 4828m and provides initial outing for the Gavin Cromwell stable. One of the better hopes despite the layoff. BELLAHILL (2) resumes from a spell of twelve weeks. Filled a minor placing at both first-up runs including when opening last prep with a second over 3218m at Kilbeggan. Thereabouts. UNFASTENED (7) returned to racing nine days ago winning a 4828m Rathcannon by 18L. Solid top-three hope.

Second run back. First-up after nine months favourite; won by a head at Umma House P2p on October 18 over 4828m defeating Miss Tipp carrying 60kg. Previously second-up didn't finish the race at Punchestown February 4 over 4626m. Impressive on that occasion but others rate better.
