06/04/26 5:00 Fairyhouse - The Irish Grand National System
1st Better Times Ahead 16/1 - 60
2nd Flicker Of Hope 11/1 - 50
A bit of a gap with these 3 and the others, the next ones are 35 and that's Sa Majeste and Search For Glory.
Argento Boy is a worry as he is very unexposed, but he has done well over fences, and he will like the ground and the track will suit. He hasn't been this far but looks a good stayer, so this step up could bring out more improvement. He also carries a good weight. If he isn't too Novicy here, he could run well!
Better Times Ahead won over 3m 6f at Fairyhouse in November and went up 14lb in the handicap, so has to find more. He will like the trip, the course and the going. He has claims if he can find more.
Flicker Of House won over 2m 4f at Fairyhouse on heavy going, so this is another mile and 1f, on much better ground, he has also won at 3m 1f, so there shouldn't be an issue. He would possibly not mind more rain either. He is also unexposed over fences, so there could be more to come from him.
It's a tough race and i actually like Argento Boy as a possible improver here, all 3 could go well and id have and ew on Argento Boy and Better Times Ahead
My Selections - Argento Boy 10/1 & Better Times Ahead 16/1
