Inca tops Fairyhouse possibles
Brave Inca heads a list of six possible runners in the Ballymore Properties Hatton’s Grace Hurdle at Fairyhouse on Sunday.
Colm Murphy’s Champion Hurdle hero is set to make his return to the track in the two-mile-four-furlong heat after finishing third to Iktitaf in the Morgiana Hurdle earlier this month.
Brave Inca took third behind Solerina in last year’s renewal and could renew rivalry with Morgiana runner-up Asian Maze.
The John Queally-trained Al Eile is also entered, while Noel Meade may be represented by Wild Passion and Lismullen Hurdle winner Rosaker.
Frances Crowley’s Brogella completes the field at the five-day stage.
Notable defections from the Grade One heat include Hardy Eustace, Iktitaf and Black Jack Ketchum, who has still yet to be seen on a racecourse this season.
