It may not be watched by the millions who tuned into Saturday's Grand National, but Sunday's action from Britain and Ireland is a good way to end the week.

Fairyhouse stages the pick of the races with two Grade 2 prizes on offer, while Cork also hosts some competitive racing with the Listed Noblesse Stakes the feature (3.45). Smart mares Cimeara and Who's Steph are among the hopefuls.

In Britain, the 2m4f novice hurdle at Ffos Las looks a hot contest (2.30) with Good Boy Bobby, who has won five from seven, taking on Quoi De Neuf, who was fourth in a Grade 2 last time. There is also action from Plumpton.
