Prince Of Fire romps home at Maze Prince Of Fire stepped up on his return to form at Bellewstown with a comfortable five length success in the two mile Tayto Group Hurdle at Down Royal. Charlie Swan’s seven-year-old sat behind Distant Memories, jumped well and led before two out before powering home to win at 7/1. Charlie Swan said: “He met every hurdle perfectly today. He wants good ground so went wide and it turned out great. “He was a bit unlucky in Galway where he was nearly brought down. He’s a gorgeous big horse. He’ll go back over fences. He’s a hard horse to place.” Distant Memories, after cutting out much of the pace, took the runners-up berth at 11/4 while Spring Hawk came in third at 12/1 in the nine-runner contest. Prince Of Fire was third at Bellewstown to Passage Vendome a week ago in a two mile one furlong hurdle.
