I feel like this should work, if you can say #foo p:first-child why does #foo hr:first-child not work. If anyone can explain this one I’d really appreciate it.
I’ve setup a JSFiddle demo here – http://jsfiddle.net/mGu7x/6/

None of the
<hr>elements are the first-child of their parent element.See this updated demo which makes the border more obvious and moves the hr to the top.
You might want to look at
:first-of-typewhich is new in CSS 3 and does what you appear to be looking for. (Can I Use suggests that it has wide support outside of non-current-IE).See a demo using
:first-of-type(which I have only tested in Chrome).
