Easy Game landed an eventful renewal of the Devenish Chase for the second year running at Fairyhouse on Easter Monday.
A field of six runners went to post for the Grade Two contest, with Easy Game a 15-2 chance to successfully defend his crown for Willie Mullins in the hands of Brian Hayes, who is the partner of Rachael Blackmore.
There was an early change to the complexion of the race after the winner’s front-running stablemate Blackbow suffered a heavy and ultimately fatal fall at the third fence, leaving another Mullins runner in Janidil in front.
