2.10 Guinness Beginners Chase 2m6½ f

Fakiera could be tough to beat. He was a classy novice hurdler, notably finishing fourth in a Grade 1 contest over this sort of distance at the Dublin Racing Festival. He never got going on his chasing debut last November and then missed the rest of the campaign before coming back in May and finishing second to Il Courra at Limerick. He should strip fitter now and could be too good for these.
