Ejayteekay beat a big field in a Down Royal handicap in May and returned to winning ways with an emphatic victory at Cork. But she's on a high enough mark now and FEELING THE LOVE may have her measure. She was beaten just under three lengths in that Down Royal event and is 7lb better off despite showing much improved form when narrowly beaten at Roscommon then winning comfortably at Killarney last week. Harrys Gift was well supported when tackling 2m4f at Wexford but jumped poorly However, she then came to this course and distance to be headed right on the line so looks capable of a big run.
