Sunday's only winner was Journey With Me, the 8/13 favourite led for a 2nd time after the 5th being challenged from 2 out. He kept on well on the run-in asserting himself in the closing stages beating Limerick Lace by 3 lengths. At Naas the Tack Room was 6th while in the other race Harmonya Maker failed to finish. The 1/1 favourite was in the lead when she fell 2 out. The contest was won by Eabha Grace who beat Hauturiere by 2 1/4 lengths.
The meeting that should have taken place at Thurles last Thursday now kicks off a new week where on a 7 race card there are 2 highlights.
1.20: Leugh Beginners Chase.
7: Mylestown Upper: A hurdles winner in his career who definitely needed the run when returning after 2 years off finishing 12th in a handicap hurdle at Navan just 9 days ago. He makes his fences debut here and despite being turned out again quickly he looks like the way to go.
4.15: Thurles Handicap Hurdle.
2: Champella: Last won at Wexford back in October and was a creditable 5th on her return at Down Royal 48 days ago. She makes her handicap hurdle debut here and with further progress expected she can continue her good form returning to winning ways.
