FormscanBy Shane Redmond - MIDNIGHT JET (2) had a number of subsequent winners behind him when landing a 25-runner maiden hurdle at Fairyhouse on Easter Saturday and he impressed once again when making all to win a novice hurdle at Killarney in early May. He's taken to complete a hat-trick of wins on his return, mainly at the expense of Roc Dino who ran well for much of the way in the Martin Pipe Conditional Jockeys' Handicap Hurdle at the Cheltenham Festival before easily winning his maiden hurdle at Downpatrick, also in May. Both Brother Walfrid and Rosie's Wings won their maiden hurdles on the same day at Punchestown in early June and the latter represents Ross O'Sullivan who has won this race for the past two years.
