David Wachman and Wayne Lordan were on the mark with Duntle at Royal Ascot on Wednesday and the pair teamed up again to land the feature race at Limerick.< Tannery was sent off an 11-1 chance for the Martin Molony Stakes after disappointing on heavy ground at Leopardstown earlier this month and she bounced back to her best in the Listed contest.

She produced a smart turn of foot to cut down the leaders a furlong out and went away impressively to beat favourite Backbench Blues by three lengths, comprehensively overturning the Leopardstown form.

The rest of the evening belonged to Ballydoyle, with Aidan O'Brien adding to this week's Royal Ascot gains by landing a treble thanks to Kingston Jamaica Battle Of Saratoga and Demurely

The juvenile Kingston Jamaica finished second on his Limerick debut only last week and made a quick return to the track to make his experience tell in the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Maiden.

The 1-2 favourite was bustled along to take an early lead by Seamie Heffernan and shook off Light Particle before running on strongly all the way down the straight to beat Horizon Sky by two lengths.

Colm O'Donoghue was in the plate on Battle Of Saratoga (2-1), who led all the way and never looked likely to be caught as he beat Shamora by three and a half lengths in the 8th July Beach Party At Limerick Races Maiden.

The jockey doubled up with another all-the-way win on 4-5 favourite Demurely, who was largely untroubled as she scored for the first time in the Croom House Stud EBF Fillies Maiden, winning by two and a quarter lengths.

Adrian McGuinness's rapidly improving Bubbly Bellini landed his third victory in a week when justifying 9-4 favouritism in the Ballyduane Stud Handicap, and he could hardly have done it any more easily.

Ian Brennan eased up to the leaders a furlong out and barely moved a muscle as the five-year-old coasted clear to score by two lengths.
