FormscanBy Alan Magee - HARBOUR HIGHWAY is not the most consistent of performers but holds strong claims if producing his best. The point-to-point winner had Net Boy 13 lengths behind in fourth when landing a Navan bumper last year and was sent off a well-backed favourite when hampered at a crucial stage in the 25-runner Fairyhouse maiden hurdle won by Ballygunner Castle. Quint Major was also a bumper winner last year at Clonmel and having shown promise behind the selection’s stablemate McLaurey in a Limerick maiden hurdle, was probably unsuited by heavy ground last time at Punchestown. Polemon has won three times on the Flat and showed promise in two hurdle starts.
