Jessica Harrington has a long history of cross-channel success but could have a rare Huntingdon runner on Sunday having left her impressive Punchestown scorer, Rock On The Moor, in a Listed bumper at the Cambridgeshire track.
Rock On The Moor, a nine length winner on her debut in late October, is one of 17 entries left in the Betfred Henrietta Knight Open Flat Race, a Listed contest named in honour of Best Mate's trainer. "She could go for a race at Navan on Sunday week or go to Huntingdon," Harrington said.
The Co, Kildare trainer’s stable star Jezki has been installed an evens favourite by one firm for his Ryanair Hurdle clash with Hurricane Fly on the final day of Leopardstown’s Christmas festival.
Jezki’s Grade 1 winning half-brother, Jetson, will also take on a top-flight contest in the Squared Financial Christmas Hurdle at the festival.
