Shaneshill difficult to oppose on debut over jumps

Brilliant bumper horse Shaneshill makes his eagerly-awaited debut over jumps in the Membership 2015 Maiden Hurdle at Fairyhouse this afternoon and is hard to oppose.

The former point-to-pointer has won three of his four races on the track, meeting the only defeat when having to give best to Silver Concorde at the Cheltenham festival.

The talented five-year-old then returned to Ireland and reversed placings with Silver Concorde at the Punchestown festival, beating his rival two lengths into second.
