Trainer Jessica Harrington has three chances in this afternoons feature at Cork, with Barrington Court Flor De La Luna and The Blue Brilliant set to represent the stable in the Noblesse Stakes.

The first named horse holds strong claims, particularly now that the rain has come, thus making the ground more testing. The mare, who is the pick of stable jockey Shane Foley, always runs her best races with an ease.

Assistant Trainer, Kate Harrington was positive about the mares chances saying "Barrington Court has done very well over the winter and we couldn't be happier with her."

Flor De La Luna, second in the race last year, is back for another crack. "She has done very well physically. She went a bit wrong mid-season but has come back and we are very happy with her," Kate added.

The third representative, The Blue Brilliant, disappointed on her final start last season but prior to that, she had been an excellent second in Group 3 company in France. A reproduction of that penultimate effort would give her leading claims and Harrington also described her as "being in great form as well."
