Tough draw no concern for Quinn's Highfield Princess in Prix de l'Abbaye

Highfield Princess will look to overcome a wide draw as she aims for 14th career success in the Prix de l'Abbaye de Longchamp on Sunday.

The sprinting star came within touching distance of a series of big races in the early part of the season before winning for the first time this year in the King George at Goodwood in early August.

From there she was was second when defending her Nunthorpe title at York before a luckless run saw her come home fifth in the Flying Five on the Curragh.

Trainer John Quinn reports she has been in good form since the Ireland trip as she looks to put that run behind her on Parisian turf.

He said: "She's doing fine and has been well since the Curragh.

"I've been happy with her the last 10 days. She did a little bit of work on Tuesday morning and moved well and Jason (Hart, jockey) was happy with her.

"She looks well, it didn't work out at the Curragh but Sunday is a different day.

"We're looking forward to it and let's hope she bounces back."
Of Highfield Princess's draw in stall 14, Quinn added: "She's got a bit of room out there...

"She missed the break at the Curragh and slipped coming out and at least in 14 she has a bit of space where she can manoeuvre. I was hoping to get somewhere in the middle, like 10 or 12, so I'm not going to cry over 14.

"This is a nice flat track, she has good form on flat tracks and we're looking forward to Sunday."

Ken Condon's Moss Tucker took the Flying Five by half a length and returns to action to try and put the seal on a consistent and progressive campaign.

"He's come out of the win at the Curragh in really good form. He left pretty early because of the weather potentially making it tricky, but he seems to have landed there well and everything is good," Condon said.
