Make My Heart Fly, the winner of four minor races in the UK before a good second in a Gowran Listed event behind GOOD THYNE TARA, was due to make her chasing debut at Fairyhouse yesterday. The winner made all and was always travelling easily and though tackling a longer trip should have no problems staying. The stable also run Robin De Carlow, an easy winner at Kilbeggan on his hurdling bow after landing a Ballinrobe bumper, who found 2m2f too short at Kilbeggan when a length behind today's rival Awayinthewest, who was also staying on. The remaining trio look to have plenty to do.
