Jessica Harrington looks to have acquired a nice prospect in HOTEL DU NORD, who went for £50,000 at the sales after scoring at Kirkistown though only two of the nine completed the course. The Bread Winner attracted support at Tramore last month despite looking in need of experience and she will have come on for the run while Jan Maat didn't handle the very testing ground at Cork and should do better. Ragin Cajun didn't show much over hurdles at Fairyhouse and may be better suited to bumpers for now.
