Djasek wins a thriller in Fairyhouse Djasek got the verdict from the judge after a battle on the run-in with Kashi in the Keep Her Lit For Lar Handicap Hurdle at Fairyhouse. The pair were locked together at the last which they both fluffed and it was Djasek who took a very slight advantage on the run-in under Peter Carberry. Kashi, on his inner, refused to go down with a fight and rallied under Rachael Blackmore. It was a head-bobbing finish that Djasek win by a short head at 7/1 from the 2/1 favourite. Vocito completed the placings in third at 15/2. “They are great lads that own him (Dewsweepers Syndicate) and they've been waiting a while. They probably should have had their day here this day last year (when runner-up in this race),” said trainer Tony Martin. “They persevered and it's great that luck came their way. His head was just coming up again at the line, a yard before we were in front.” Additional reporting by Gary Carson
