After race at Gowran Park Tue, 23rd May, 2023 (1st)
We're delighted with her, she's a tough filly. She's had two really bad draws, the last time she was here and at Cork last week. Scott had to use her up an awful lot jumping out of the gates the last day. It was maybe a touch quick in the straight for her in Cork but she came out of that run well. A mile is her minimum, a mile-and-a-quarter would be an awful lot better for her. I think there is another nine-and-a-half furlong race for her here in about three weeks time so she'll come back for that. We'll give her an easy week after that. She has won three around here and always runs a good race, she absolutely loves Gowran so we'll keep coming here with her.
Mrs John Harrington


After race at Gowran Park Wed, 11th Aug, 2021 (1st)
She has to get down into that grade, won here over a mile last year and over 1m1f today. She is in at the Curragh on Friday (in a 1m apprentice handicap, along with first race winner Howling Wolf) and will most likely go there as she'll probably get a hike for that. The (first-time) visor made a big difference today.
Mrs John Harrington


After race at Leopardstown Thu, 23rd Jul, 2020 (1st)
You would have to be delighted with her. She was just collared close home at Limerick the last day but has won two now. She's owned by Pat and Bridie Harty, and that will be a nice tonic for Bridie who is not too well at the moment.
Mrs John Harrington


After race at Gowran Park Thu, 11th Jun, 2020 (1st)
She came forward very well from last year as she was big and weak but did very very well over the winter and has improved,. Hopefully there is another handicap in her and it is lovely to win for her owner Pat Harty and his wife Bridie who hasn't been well.
Mrs John Harrington
