Review killarney 19th Jul

Wed 19th Jul 2017, 21:20

< She's So Flawless victory in the Corcorans Furniture & Carpets Maiden was the highlight of a Killarney double for Chris Hayes.

The 11-1 chance offered some encouragement when third on her Ballinrobe debut but it was her fellow Willie Mullins inmate, the Royal Bond Novice Hurdle winner Airlie Beach who made the running.

The stable companions fought hard from two out until She's So Flawless eventually got on top and she broke her duck by three-quarters of a length from Abyssinian with Airlie Beach Adam Short head away in third.

Age still hasn't caught up with Byron Beauty and Harry Rogers' nine-year-old taught her rivals a thing or two with an impressive performance under Hayes in the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Fillies Handicap.

The 10-1 chance stormed into the lead with over a furlong to travel and saw her race out well to dispose of Magen's Moon by a length and three-quarters.< Lagostovegas was pulled up over timber on her first start for Mullins but put the record straight in no uncertain terms, justifying 11-8 favouritism with the minimum of fuss in the MC Group Handicap under Pat Smullen.

Ger Lyons and Colin Keane teamed up with a winner on each of the first two days of the July Festival, and continued the sequence thanks to Always Dancing (9-2) in the Killarney Avenue/Munster Joinery Handicap.

The three-year-old hadn't even made the frame in her five previous starts but ran out a comprehensive four-and-a-half-length scorer over Empress Lyla < Dawn Raider shed his maiden tag in the Bet Through The Racing Post App Handicap Hurdle.

Adam Short still hadn't moved when sending the Pat Kelly-trained 9-2 favourite to the front on the run to the penultimate obstacle and he wasn't heard pressed to see off Conduct Yourself by four and a quarter lengths.< Open To The World won the McSweeney Arms Hotel Mares Maiden Hurdle as the 13-8 favourite, and The Diary Keeper took the Meet The Roses At The Races (Ladies Pro/Am) Flat Race.
