HARMONYA MAKER has twice made all for impressive victories and started favourite for a Punchestown Listed contest last month. However, she unseated at the second and Hauturiere came from behind to lead on the run-in with Rioga Choice a close third. The winner's stablemate Eabha Grace was beaten a long way but was reportedly struck into and is much better judged on her very impressive victory on heavy ground there earlier. Gordon Elliott's mare gets a chance to gain compensation though Troubled Times won a Gowran bumper in good style after a couple of fair runs over timber and has plenty of scope.
