Horse Racing - Honeysuckle Mares Novice Hurdle

This race for female horses aged four years or over is staged each Easter Sunday over a distance of two-and-a-half miles (4,000 metres) at Fairyhouse, County Meath, Ireland. It began as a Grade 3 event in 2003, was promoted to Grade 2 in 2011 and became part of the top level, Grade 1, in 2013. It was not staged in 2020 due to the Covid-19 pandemic. It is named after one of the greatest mares in Irish jump racing history.
