The Irish Grand National takes centre stage at Fairyhouse on Easter Monday, but there's another cracking day of racing to get through at the Co Meath venue before then.
Easter Sunday's card consists of eight races, including the Grade 1 Irish Stallion Farms EBF Honeysuckle Mares' Novice Hurdle, which sees Jade De Grugy aim to return to winning ways after finish fourth at the Cheltenham Festival earlier this month.
But she faces a tough challenge in the shape of the Jessica Harrington-trained Jetara, while Jade de Grugy's trainer Willie Mullins runs ten in the race in total, with Fun Fun Fun perhaps holding the best chance of them outwit the favourite.

The WillowWarm Gold Cup is the other Grade 1 on the card and sees rivals Blood Destiny and Spillane's Tower lock horns once again, while Zanahiyr is an interesting runner for Gordon Elliott.
There are a pair of Grade 2s on the card too, the Donohue Marquees Novice Hurdle and the Paddy Kehoe Suspended Ceilings Novice Hurdle.
