September Leaves, continuing the fine run of form for jockey Shane Foley and trainer Jessica Harrington, gained an overdue breakthrough in the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Maiden, the third race on Wednesday evening’s card in Limerick.

The Moyglare filly showed promise in three runs last year but showed a distinctly higher level of potential when fourth in a competitive handicap at the Curragh on her comeback.
