Kerry Lee will be praying for a rainy Easter as she contemplates running Russe Blanc in the BoyleSports Irish Grand National at Fairyhouse on March 28. The nine-year-old enjoyed testing conditions to win the Betfred Classic Chase at Warwick in January but the ground had dried out too much at Newcastle when he unseated his rider in the Eider Chase last month.Lee is hoping wet weather returns before the end of the month after Russe Blanc was allotted 9st 13lb for the Easter Monday showpiece. Hes very much a possibility at the moment. Its the dream of his owner Mark Jackson to go to Ireland, but it comes plenty quick enough on the back of the Eider, said the Presteigne trainer, who has enjoyed a run of big-race success since taking over from her father, Richard.He was fine after the Eider. He didnt have a hard race, he just didnt enjoy the ground. It was a bit on the quick side for him.He was a Warwick Classic Chase winner on heavy ground. Were hoping for more of the same in Ireland.Russe Blanc is one of 11 British entries from eight different stables among a list of 90 for the marathon test.Jonjo ONeill has three, headed by Beg To Differ 10st 4lb), as he bids to win the race for the third time after Butlers Cabin in 2007 and Shutthefrontdoor under Barry Geraghty two years ago.Others include the Neil Mulholland-trained Caroles Destrier (10st 13lb), David Pipes Broadway Buffalo (10st 2lb) and Vivaldi Collonges (10st 4lb) from the Paul Nicholls stable.Willie Mullins is making a concerted effort to end his Irish Grand National hoodoo by putting in 17 entries.His team is headed by Grade One winner Valseur Lido, who tops the weights on 11st 10lb from a 90-strong entry for the Easter Monday showpiece.Also among his squad are On His Own (11st 3lb), Measureofmydreams (10st 7lb) and Roi Des Francs (10st 12lb).The first three horses home in last years race are engaged once again with the winner Thunder And Roses (10st 7lb) one of five possibles from Sandra Hughess yard.The Mouse Morris-trained Rule The World (10st 7lb) and Jim Dreapers Sizing Coal (9st 9lb), who were second and third, could try again.Dreaper has another hopeful in the novice Venitien De Mai (9st 13lb), who booked his ticket by winning the Leinster National at Naas on Sunday.Gordon Elliott is another top trainer looking for his first win in the Irish National and has entered a team of 12 including Mala Beach (10st 12lb) and recent Thurles winner Lord Scoundrel (10st 7lb).Cantlow (9st 10lb) finished best of the British challengers in sixth place for Paul Webber last year but is now in the care of Enda Bolger, who also has Gilgamboa (11st 2lb).My Murphy won the Thyestes Chase for trainer Liam Burke at Gowran Park in January and he is on 10st 10lbs as he bids to improve on his seventh place last year.

MILWAUKEE -- Although Jimmy Nelson hadnt won a game in more than a month, he kept insisting he wasnt pitching as poorly as it seemed.Nelson provided proof on Monday night, winning for the first time in seven starts and not issuing a walk for the first time this season as the Milwaukee Brewers beat the Colorado Rockies 4-2.We focused on quality pitches. Even the misses were small, Nelson said.Nelson (7-13) gave up two runs and seven hits in six innings while striking out four. He hadnt pitched past the fifth in any of his previous six starts.I honestly felt really good, like I could have gone back out there, he said. With the tempo and effort of my delivery, I felt like I didnt really get tired out there.Nelson threw 71 of 95 pitches for strikes.He was pounding the zone very well tonight, Milwaukee manager Craig Counsell said.Chris Carter homered for the Brewers and Tyler Thornburg got the last three outs for his fifth save in nine chances.The Rockies got a run in the first when David Dahl scored on a wild pitch by Nelson.The Brewers tied it in the bottom of the inning when Jonathan Villar scored from third on an error by Colorado shortstop Daniel Descalso. Kirk Nieuwenhuis added a two-run single.Carters solo homer to left in the third, his 30th of the season, off Chad Bettis (10-7) extended Milwaukees lead to 4-1.Bettis gave up four runs and four hits.

He threw 111 pitches, second only to his career-high 114 on April 25 against Pittsburgh.DJ LaMahieus run scoring single in the fifth brought the Rockies within two runs.Dahl finished with two singles and two stolen bases for the Rockies.KEY CATCHIt was only the second batter of the game, but Nieuwenhuis diving catch of LaMahieus tailing shot down the right-field line prevented the Rockies from a potentially big inning.They had a big inning working, for sure,, Counsell said.dddddddddddd If that ball gets through, the middle of their lineup is obviously very dangerous. That catch was the play of the game, really.Nieuwenhuis said he felt the ball begin to pop out of his glove as he crashed to the ground. I knew I was going to be able to get there but it ended up being a little further than I thought, he said. I was able to pin it to my chest.CARTER CRUSHESCarter became the first Brewer to reach 30 home runs in a season since 2012 when Ryan Braun hit 41 and Corey Hart had 30. He has hit 21 home runs at Miller Park.I always love coming back here and hitting, Carter said.VILLAR SWIPES 50thJonathan Villar stole bases in the first and second innings, giving him 50 for the season.
