Davy Condon benefited from the absence through in jury of Paul Carberry at Fairyhouse today, standing in for the 'spare' on the Gordon Elliott trained Time For A Pint winner of the opening Summer Racing At Fairyhouse Maiden Hurdle.

The winner moved between horses to lead before the final flight and stayed on well for a two and a quarter lengths win over She's A Leader

Regarding the dual bumper winner, Elliott later stated “he's a grand big old staying horse, jumps well and will get a break for six weeks now.

“He will stay jumping hurdles this year but wouldn't want it as quick as that and hopefully is ok in the morning.”
