Blazing Liss for the paddocks now

Blazing Liss has been a tremendous servant to John Kiely and her owners the Flynn family. She signed off her career in the best possible fashion, landing the Listed mares hurdle by 2 1/2L at Punchestown this afternoon.

Davy Russell's mount gave her supporters heart palpations by stumbling on landing at the penultimate hurdle but she overcame that setback to justify 15/8 favouritism.

'She was covered by Flemensfirth a fortnight ago and she will probably be retired now,' said a delighted Kiely.
