My Midnight gets her turn in Kilbeggan

My Midnight and Cathal Landers readily took the honours in the mares' maiden hurdle which got Kilbeggan's card under way.

The Shantou mare tracked front-running Robin Des Sivola throughout before a slick jump took her into the lead four out.

The 6/4 favourite. went four lengths clear of that rival after the next flight and tanked her way home.

There was still a good three lengths between her and a tiring Robin Des Sivola at the last where the latter fell.

My Midnight was left to come in clear by 13 lengths from a gambled-on More Info (4/1 from 15/2). Little Lady Lu was a further 10 lengths adrift in third.

Andrew Slattery trained the winner who had been placed in eight of her previous 11 races, so she wasn't winning out of turn.
