JESSICA HARRINGTON: Seeking Jezki boost

Racing has continued to be severely affected by the weather and tomorrow’s meeting at Naas is touch and go, but we’re getting plenty excitement today with four Grade 1s at Leopardstown. I don’t have a runner in any of them but am looking forward to them nonetheless.

The Deloitte Novice Hurdle is one I will be keeping a particularly close eye on given that so many of the protagonists have links with Jezki.

Speaking of which, I can report that he had his first breeze yesterday morning after a little break and everything went well. We were very happy to get that out of the way and now we’ll build him up steadily, with a view to being fresh for Cheltenham in five weeks and taking in Punchestown afterwards.
