Verdict

JUMP THE SHARK ran just about her best race to date in line with the longer trip when third in a big-field Fairyhouse handicap 26 days ago and with further progress anticipated, he gets the nod to open his account at the sixth attempt. Recent Thurles winner Killinure Lass under a penalty and the returning Miss Tempo are others to consider.

  1. JUMP THE SHARK (IRE)
  2. KILLINURE LASS (IRE)
  3. MISS TEMPO (IRE)
