Fairyhouse passes inspection

Fairyhouse will host the traditional New Year's Day racing action tomorrow with the first race timed for 12.20. The opening race is appropriately called the New Year Maiden Hurdle and King of Firth is likely to be involved in the closing stages. There was an inspection this morning at the track as a precaution and a large crowd is expected at this proular traditional 1st January meeting. The chase course is heavy with the hurdle course heavy soft in places. It is understood that there will be a bus connection from the M3 Parkway.
