Kicking King's half sister Whistle Dixie maintained her unbeaten record when impressively making the step up in class to win the concluding E85 Arkle Package On Easter Monday Mares (Pro/Am) Bumper for trainer Gordon Elliott at Fairyhouse today.

Already a winner of her point-to-point and maiden bumper, the daughter of Kayf Tara quickened well under David Mullins inside the final furlong for a five and a half lengths win over Honeys Joy

Afterwards Elliott stated "I think she's a nice mare and I'll have to chat to Eddie and Michael (O'Leary, of owners Gigginstown House Stud) but if it doesn't come up too quick she's definitely a mare for Punchestown or Aintree (bumpers)."
