History will be made today with the first Grade 1 mares hurdle race in Ireland.
Six are due to go to post for the 2.25 at Fairyhouse in which Willie Mullins' Annie Power will be a very warm order.
Her win in a Grade 2 at Naas last-time out made it six wins from six. She steps up to two and a half miles for the first time here and is partnered by Ruby Walsh.
Michael Winters' tough mare Missunited will likely be the each way play for many punters with trip and ground ideal.
Willie Mullins also has Zuzka and Glens Melody battling for prize money.
