FormscanBy Donal Murphy - BARRINGTON COURT has been a bit of a revelation since switching to the level. After an easy success in a maiden at Bellewstown in August, she then ran a cracker in the Oyster Stakes at Galway, going down by just a length and three parts to Princess Zoe. She again filled the runner-up spot behind Dawn Patrol in the Loughbrown Stakes at the Curragh and after those recent efforts she would be a deserving winner of this Listed contest. The hat-trick seeking Shamiyna is an interesting contender for Dermot Weld and Oisin Orr. She impressively dismissed the 96 rated Princess Yaiza at Killarney earlier this month and it'll be interesting to see how she copes with this step-up in class. The O'Brien family are responsible for eight of the fifteen declared for this near mile and a half contest, with Joseph and Aidan both saddling three. Elizabethofaragon, trained by the master of Ballydoyle, is the mount of Seamie Heffernan and she looks capable of making her presence felt.
