Marshall Jennings can lay down the law

Marshall Jennings can earn a first victory since his switch to Jessica Harrington, by taking the www.thetote.com handicap at Ballinrobe tonight.

Previously with Richard Hannon, in Britain, where his sole success came in an Epsom maiden, he made his debut for his new yard in very competitive handicap on 2000 Guineas day at the Curragh. Slowly into stride, he made sustained progress along the rails to mount a late challenge but was cut off in his run, and eventually settle for 13th place, not beaten very far, behind Duca Valentois.

He returned to the Curragh last month, for another competitive handicap and, after racing quite keenly in the early stages, finished well to be beaten less than a length behind the same horse.
