Parliament gets vote

PARLIAMENT SQUARE is the nap choice to land the Gain Horse Feeds Hurdle on a decent programme at Thurles this afternoon.

Michael O’Brien’s five-year-old, formerly trained on the flat in England by David Loder, made a favourable impression when getting off the mark over flights at Fairyhouse on January 1.

A strong order in the market, 3-1 to 2-1 favourite, the selection easily dismissed main rival Jazz Messenger by a cosy three and a half lengths. Jazz Messenger upheld the form when subsequently scoring at Navan.
