Irish hopes high for another winning raid in UK

Fracas and Merger will bid to add to Ireland’s impressive haul of recent British races when the pair line up for the Betfred Classic Trial at Sandown.

Both the Greenham and Craven Stakes last week went back to the Emerald Isle and tomorrow’s challengers, trained respectively by David Wachman and Dermot Weld, are likely to be popular in the Group Three event at the Esher venue.
