After race at Limerick Sun, 3rd Jul, 2016 (1st)

three miles is what she wants and the trip was too short for her the last day. She’ll go back to Kilbeggan for the Midlands National next.

Mrs John Harrington

After race at Kilbeggan Fri, 15th May, 2015 (1st)

She deserved that after being placed. I decided to come here as it was three miles and she got all the allowances. She's not over-big so I thought it was better to come here,. She jumped really well and was a good point-to-point winner. She was also second in a good point-to-point so had a bit of form. I'm delighted and she has improved every time I've run her. She'll go on through the summer and it will depend on what comes up whether she stays hurdling or goes over fences. She'd be alright over two-and-a-half also as long as they go a good gallop and she seems to go on any ground.
