Hammersmith will be targeted at the Dublin Racing Festival next following his runner-up effort at Fairyhouse yesterday.

The juvenile filled second place to Wolf Prince in the opening ITM Stallion Trail Hurdle and trainer James Nash reported "he ran great and he's a fair horse. I don't know what happened with him the first time.

“Thank-God I put him in the big race at Leopardstown. I'll let him go there even though he is a maiden.

“I'd say the better the ground gets the better he's going to get.”
