Review killarney 13th Jul
Off Limits (near side) is about to head Military Angel in the feature at Killarney

< Off Limits showed her true colours to collect Listed honours in the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Cairn Rouge Stakes at Killarney.
Not seen since down the field when fancied for Leopardstown's 1,000 Guineas Trial in May, David Wachman's 6-1 shot went in pursuit of Military Angel when that one hit the front two furlongs from the finish.
The daughter of Mastercraftsman soon seized the initiative and finished her race off to good effect to triumph by a length and a quarter.< Foxtrot Charlie made a sparkling start to his racing career in the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Median Auction Race.
Dermot Weld's English Channel colt was allowed to go off at 7-1 for his debut but took the lead off front-running market leader Brontide halfway down the straight before putting daylight between himself and his rivals, and he crossed the line with three and a quarter lengths in hand.< Reckless Lad (13-2) broke his turf duck in a thrilling finish to the O'Keeffe's Marquee Hire Rathmore Handicap.< Beau Satchel came with what appeared to be a winning move when hitting the front at the furlong marker, but Shane Foley was just finding top gear on Reckless Lad and he mowed down the leader before repelling the late thrust of Hatton Cross by a neck.< Bay Hill lumped top weight to victory in the Dermot O'Leary Memorial Handicap.
The 11-2 chance came there cruising fully three furlongs out but, with possible doubts about his stamina, Fran Berry seemed reluctant to ask him to go too early.
He shot clear when eventually given the office and, to his credit, he saw out the mile and three furlongs perfectly well in seeing off Malicious Intent by three-quarters of a length.
Edmond Kent ran two in the John Buckley Auctioneers Mares Maiden Hurdle and although there was late money for Lenora it was her more fancied stablemate Kris Kindle who prevailed as a 7-2 chance.
