- Harmony at her ease for Mullins in finale
Harmony at her ease for Mullins in finale

Tocororo was smooth for odds-on backers in race two and it was a case of more of the same in the finale as Glens Harmony (2/5), owned and bred by Fiona McStay, came home at her ease in the Weddings @ Breaffy European Breeders Fund Mares INH Flat Race at Ballinrobe.
A highly promising third on debut at the Punchestown Festival, the sister to dual Grade 1 heroine, Glens Melody, cruised away from Bridge Native on the turn-in to register a thirteen length win under Patrick Mullins.
Mullins said of his father Willie's charge: "She is very good. Her work at home wouldn't inspire you but she is a different mare on the racetrack.
"She is obviously beautifully bred and she has handled that good ground fairly easily. I think she has enough speed to go back and win on the Flat.
"I don't know what the plans are with her, whether she keeps going or gets a break. She could get a break and come back for the mares Listed race at Navan and races like that.
"She already has black-type from the first day. I know Glens Melody went on through the summer and she won three bumpers.
"I'll have to talk to dad and see. She is a King's Theatre and definitely handles that ground very well, but Glens Melody handled all sorts.
"It's good to get the first winner of the season out of the way."
