Review leopardstown 15th Jul
< Profound Beauty proved once again she is the queen of Leopardstown when landing the Listed Challenge Stakes for the third year in succession.< Spinning Wings went clear early on, but once Pat Smullen got the 2-5 favourite into top gear there was never going to be another winner.
Scorching clear in the final furlong, the six-year-old registered an easy success over the staying-on Drumfire < Together gave Aidan O'Brien his second successive winner of the Group Three Silver Flash Stakes with a spirited victory.
Taking over from stablemate Gemstone in the home straight, the 9-10 favourite pulled clear for Johnny Murtagh, providing him and O'Brien with a double on the card.< Laughing Lashes closed in the final furlong, but Together had the race in the bag and held on by a length.< Sherwood Forest justified 6-4 favouritism in the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Maiden, but the result could have been much different.
O'Brien's charge attempted to make all but his goose looked cooked when Jim Bolger's Hasty Katie swept past over a furlong out.
However, she seemed unwilling to carry on with the task at hand, allowing Murtagh to get Sherwood Forest back up to win by three-quarters of a length.
Bolger enjoyed some better luck in the Foxrock maiden as Priomhbhean made all to score.
Kevin Manning got daylight between the 5-2 chance and the remainder of the field at the two furlong pole, and she kept up the gallop well to score by two and a half lengths from McTaggart.< Castle Bar Sling just got the better of a thrilling tussle with Camira to land the "Paul Brady" Stillorgan Handicap.
Camira looked to be going best when ranging alongside the 10-1 winner a furlong out, but Thomond O'Mara's charge responded to Willie Supple's urgings to score by a short-head.
Declan McDonogh guided Bay Knight (7-2) to victory in the Kilmacud Claiming Race, while the Derrinstown Stud Apprentice Handicap went to the Daryl Byrne-ridden Strandfield Lady (9-2).
