Race preview
HARLEY STREET was fancied to be competitive in a Grade 3 juvenile at Fairyhouse on his hurdling debut when finishing a disappointing last. He was reported to be blowing hard post-race, which suggests he is capable of much better, and the son of Galileo is worth another chance in these much calmer waters. Pinyon Jay improved from his first start to be placed in a Kilbeggan bumper and the step up in trip is likely to benefit him on his hurdling bow, while One Flew Eau Verte and Mount Frisco complete the shortlist.
