Russell records Fairyhouse Treble
Davy Russell's good day continued when recorded a treble after Quito De La Rouge landed the I.N.H Stallion Owners EBF Novice Handicap Hurdle Series Final at odds of 10/1.
Russell raced the Gigginstown owned gelding on outer and took up the lead after the second last and kept on well for one and a quarter length win over Ad Idem
Winning trainer Colm Murphy said afterwards: "He did that very well. He got his conditions today three miles on soft ground. The softer the better for him."
"The ground will dictate his plans really, if it stays soft we'll keep him on the go or if it dries up we'll wait until the other side of the Summer."
Murphy said of Zaarito "He's fine after his fall, he's a frustrating sort but hopefully things will go right for him."
