Illusion has the allure of a winner

I was due to be at Sandown today, but that went west yesterday morning, so have to settle for just one ride at Fairyhouse, Maggie Connolly.

But before we get to that mare, and others at Fairyhouse, let’s look ahead to Punchestown tomorrow, starting with the battle between Sizing Europe and Big Zeb in the Tied Cottage Chase.

If you cannot get to Cheltenham next month then make your way to Punchestown, because this will be the same as watching the two-mile Champion Chase.
