Listowel gets its Harvest Festival underway on Sunday, but before that there are two meetings to be negotiated, and Purple Lily rates nap material in the Group 3 Denny Cordell Lavarack & Lanwades Stud Fillies’ Stakes, which is the feature on this afternoon’s Flat card in Gowran Park.
Paddy Twomey’s now four-year-old was a smart sort last year, when her form included a third-place finish in the Irish Oaks, but she has only appeared once this season. That run came almost three months ago in a listed race in Roscommon, and it resulted in a seventh-place finish.
