Willie Mullins would rather Quevega did not have to tackle Voler La Vedette in the Ladbrokes.com World Series Hurdle at Punchestown.

I CAN fully understand why I’m not speaking for the majority when I say that I’m bored with the whole furore over the in-running incident on Betfair during the Christmas Hurdle at Leopardstown earlier in the week, but I feel it’s got to be accepted as one unfortunate incident.

Voler La Vedette (7-4) showed a fine turn of foot to win the Bar One Racing Hatton’s Grace Hurdle at Fairyhouse to complete a fantastic weekend for jockey Andrew Lynch.

Colm Murphy’s star mare Voler La Vedette will bid for a first Grade One victory in the Bar One Racing Hatton’s Grace Hurdle at Fairyhouse on Sunday.

BRILLIANT mare Voler La Vedette rallied in terrific style to snatch the Grade 2 Keelings Irish Strawberry Hurdle.

VOLER La Vedette gets the nap to land a cracking five-runner Grade 3 WKD Core Hurdle at Down Royal this afternoon.

FOLLOWING a fair bit of soul-searching, I have decided to ride Pomme Tiepy in Monday’s Irish Grand National at Fairyhouse.
