Salsify and Zemsky to clash at Fairyhouse The latest two winners of the Christie's Foxhunter Chase look set to clash in the Joseph O'Reilly Memorial Hunters Chase at Fairyhouse next Tuesday as both Salsify and Zemsky are among the 27 entries. Trained by Rodger Sweeney, Salsify got home by a length from Chapoturgeon in a thrilling finish at Cheltenham last month. The seven-year-old gelding won this race last year, and Sweeney said "He has come out of Cheltenham well and as long as the ground is safe, we're on for Fairyhouse. "If all goes well then we will look to go to Punchestown afterwards." Zemsky has not run since his Cheltenham victory last year and his trainer Ian Ferguson said: "We had some problems before Christmas with splints, but they've settled down now and he has done plenty of work. "As long as the ground is safe he will run. He has won first time out in the past."
