Lady O a fourth Galway festival winner for Harrington

Lady O (10/3) made virtually all to land the Whiriskey Refrigeration Irish EBF Nursery Handicap. 

Shane Foley kicked her on approaching the home turn and the winner found plenty to readily see off market leader Elzem by four and a half lengths. 

It was a fourth winner of race week at Galway for Jessica Harrington who trains the daughter of Australia for the It's All About The Girls syndicate. 

Assistant Kate Harrington commented: "She had run some solid races and then went through a growing spurt so I thought she was well handicapped.

"She won on soft at Roscommon the first day and the ground was a little quick for her at Tipperary and Killarney but she relishes this stiff uphill finish as she will be a 1m2f filly for next year.

"I'm sure the handicapper will have his say but if she keeps progressing, we might try to get to Irish Champions Weekend for the Ingabelle Stakes which the syndicate won in 2018 with Sparkle'n'joy.

"They are very happy owners who have a good record here and I hope she can keep progressing for all the ladies, as we get great craic of it. There are 12 here today and there'll be big celebrations."
