Re: Horse Racing
Zaidpour graces Fairyhouse

Zaidpour dug deep to claim the Bar One Racing Hatton's Grace Hurdle at Fairyhouse.
Ruby Walsh's mount showed a great attitude in going past fellow joint-favourite Voler La Vedette going to the last, after the star mare had moved smoothly to the lead two out, where long-time leader So Young made a mistake.
Willie Mullins' charge soon mastered Voler La Vedette, who lost second on the run to the line as Monksland finished well. The winning distance was two and a half lengths.
