< Hailstone ran out a determined winner of the Next Meeting Friday 16th June Race at Fairyhouse.

Patrick Prendergast's gelding wasn't suited by the terms of the contest but Dylan Hogan bounced him out in front and was allowed an uncontested lead.

The 5-1 chance kicked clear halfway down the straight and although favourite Noivado eventually made inroads into the gap, the line came in time for Hailstone, who crossed it with a length and a quarter in hand.< Whitefountainfairy stepped forward significantly from her introduction to land the Foran Equine Irish EBF Auction Maiden in impressive fashion.

Jessie Harrington's filly was only seventh, five places behind the reopposing Red Persian at the Curragh but reversed the form in no uncertain terms with her fellow 5-2 joint-favourite, registering a two-and-three-quarter-length triumph.

Harrington followed up when Black Ruby (5-2) bettered her debut second in the Fairyhouse Special Offers Fillies Maiden.< Steelyeyed (9-2) has been in the assessor's grip since landing a Leopardstown handicap in April, but showed her appreciation for a drop in class to make most of the running in the Fairyhouse Welcomes Competitors Of The Tattersalls International Horse Trials Claiming Race.< Idyllic Acrylic attracted market support prior to the Fairyhouse For Club Fundraisers Median Auction Maiden and duly got the job done.

The 7-1 shot quickened to lead a furlong and a half out and never looked like being reeled in, accounting for Dreaming Of Gold by two and a half lengths.< Empress Lyla hadn't been seen since October but that didn't stop punters sending her off the 5-1 joint-favourite for the Follow Us On Social Media Handicap and she came with a rattling run in the final furlong to deny Bouquet Garni by half a length.< Mistiness (7-1) ran out a clear-cut winner of the Jogforjockeys.ie Apprentice Handicap (Div 1), with the second instalment going the way of another 7-1 shot in Pirolo
