Easter Sunday Betting Tips - Atlantic Fairy Fancied for Mares Novice Hurdle Final

Publish Date:02/04/2021
Fact checked by: James Leeland

There are four graded races from Fairyhouse we've got Easter Sunday betting tips for you on from Ireland. This is the middle day of a three-day jumps festival that takes place in the Emerald Isle. See who Betting.co.uk experts fancy for races like the Fairyhouse Gold Cup and more!

Easter Sunday betting tips - Atlantic Fairy appeals over Cheltenham contingent

The 2m 4f Mares Novice Hurdle Championship Final is the first of two Grade 1s on the card (15:20). A number of Cheltenham Festival flops go up in trip, but had hard races just over a fortnight ago. Therefore, the fresher Atlantic Fairy looks a value alternative.

Trained by Henry De Bromhead, this progressive seven-year-old chased home Master McShee on reappearance at Cork. The winner has not only scored since, but was previously within 2 1/2 lengths of Appreciate It. That one routed his rivals in the Supreme Novices' Hurdle at Cheltenham.

Since then, Atlantic Fairy - a daughter of Jeremy who sired plenty of big winners at that major UK meeting on a sounder surface - has won her next two. After landing a Limerick maiden hurdle over Christmas, she made an easy step up into Listed company at Navan.

Better ground shouldn't be a problem for Atlantic Fairy. Rachael Blackmore is two from three on her, and the same jockey and trainer took this race in 2019 with Honeysuckle. Atlantic Fairy looks solid each-way value, then, at 7/1 with Betfair, who pay four places.

Echoes In Rain can follow-up

There are also a couple of Grade 2 novice hurdles that we have Easter Sunday betting tips on for you. The first of those is a 2m contest (14:50), where it looks significant that Willie Mullins runs Echoes In Rain. She was ante post favourite for the Mares Novice Hurdle Championship Final, but goes in this open event instead.

A five-year-old daughter of Authorized, Echoes In Rain is two from four over hurdles. She is a keen going sort, but clearly has lots of ability as she's already won in this grade. That victory came last time out at Naas when she was eight lengths too good for subsequent County Hurdle hero Belfast Banter.

That is strong form and commands Echoes In Rain respect. Mullins stable jockey Paul Townend has been aboard for both of her wins, and gets the leg up again. Echoes In Rain therefore gets the nod at 11/4 with William Hill in a decent field where most of the runners have some sort of chance.

Gentlemansgame can go one better

Gentlemansgame may come out best from race terms in the 2m 4f novice hurdle later on (15:50).This Mouse Morris inmate purposely skipped Cheltenham for this. Although he has only won a point and a maiden hurdle, the grey Gentlewave gelding chased home Gaillard Du Mesnil in a Grade 1 at the Dublin Racing Festival last time out.

That form is very strong, as the winner went on to be runner-up in the Ballymore at Cheltenham. On that evidence, Gentlemansgame has nothing to fear from re-opposing rival Ashdale Bob. He gets 5lb instead of 2lb off that one here, putting the weights firmly in his favour.

Blackmore, who rode Gentlemansgame in his impressive 21-length Cork romp on hurdles debut, is again aboard. There is so much to like about his unexposed profile that he's a confident selection at 3/1 with William Hill for victory.

Andy Dufresne the Fairyhouse Gold Cup bet

The last of our Easter Sunday betting tips is in the big race of the day, the 2m 4f Grade 1 Fairyhouse Gold Cup for novice chasers (17:00). Andy Dufresne represents the best of Dublin Racing Festival form, so appeals most for success at the highest level.

Owned by legendary Irish gambler JP McManus, this seven-year-old by Doyen is two from three over fences. Andy Dufresne beat Arkle third Captain Guinness over hurdles at Punchestown last winter, so shouldn't have any problems with Franco De Port who was behind that rival at Cheltenham.

After wins at Wexford and then in Grade 3 company at Navan, he came third behind Cheltenham Festival scorer Monkfish and Irish Grand National fancy Latest Exhibition at the highest level around Leopardstown. There is nothing of the winner's calibre in this.

It would be no surprise if Andy Dufesne, a 4/1 chance with Betfred, confirmed that form with re-opposing rival Asterion Forlonge who isn't a reliable favourite by any means. With questions over all three Mullins runners (the third being owner companion Janidil), he gets our vote.
