[edit] Remarks

Synonym: Hieracium pratense Tausch

Can be confused with Hieracium piloselloides

Differences are that it has stolons and rhizomes (only after flowering), flower heads in a compact flat-topped cluster (rather than in a more open round-topped cluster) and all surfaces of leaves have hairs (see photo below).
