Jessica Harrington launches twin assault on BoyleSports Hurdle

Jessica Harrington is looking forward to launching a formidable twin assault on the BoyleSports Hurdle at Leopardstown on Sunday as she bids to win the prestigious handicap a fourth time.

The County Kildare-based trainer struck gold with Dance Beat in 1996 and Studmaster 10 years later, before Citizenship’s triumph three years ago.

This season’s challenge is headed by Rock The World, who has already won twice this season and finished a creditable second over course and distance three weeks ago.
