Racing: Commanche faces tough test at Fairyhouse

Ted Walsh may have ruled Papillon out of next weekend’s Martell Grand National at Aintree, thereby foregoing the chance of recording a quick double from his charge in the marathon event.

But the ultra-smart Kill trainer can still land a notable double when he sends Tote Cheltenham Gold Cup runner-up Commanche Court across to Fairyhouse in a bid for his second victory in the Powers Gold Label Irish Grand National.
