Fairyhouse is the target for Launchpad after he ran out an impressive winner of the Moycarkey Hurdle at Thurles today.

Davy Russell tracked the leader Aimn Spartacus on the 4/5 shot before taking up the running turning for home.

Dessie Hughes' charge scooted clear after the second last, in the Gigginstown colours, and came home an easy six-length victor over One For Joules

"He's in at Aintree but Fairyhouse might do instead," said Hughes afterwards.

"He could go for a winners of one beforehand although he doesn't need much more experience.

"He jumped well today. He might be good enough to win at Fairyhouse."
