The Andy Oliver trained Vitally Important overcame a disappointing run at the Curragh latest to win the International Hotel Killarney Rated Race at Killarney today, under Chris Hayes.

The son of Pivotal battled well for a neck win over Cradle Mountain and afterwards Oliver stated "we were expecting a big run from him the last day at the Curragh but I had no explanation why he ran so badly. He may have had a look around and we were more positive today and Chris gave him a super ride.

"I thought the turning track would help and we'll see what the handicapper does now but he does have handicap options."
