Dullea's Cailin Dearg sees off more-fancied rivals All the fancied ones came to challenge Cailin Dearg (22/1) in the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Mares’ (Pro/Am) INH Flat Race but Darragh Allen’s mount fended them off in the straight to win by a length. Patty D (11/4) was second with Mi lighthouse (9/4) in third and the 2/1 favourite Nudie beaten just a little over three lengths in fourth. 7lb claimer Allen had won on the daughter of Getaway at her local point-to-point in Bandon back in March. She’d finished seventh at Listowel on her first run after a break last month. Winning trainer James Dulleas said: "She is a free going sort and did similar (raced prominently) the day she won her point-to-point. Darragh (Allen) gave her a brilliant ride. "Turning in I was getting a bit edgy but she is tough and is probably a better mare with horses coming at her. She found more when they came at her and she toughed it out. "Her owner Padraig Butler does a lot of work with her and he deserves a bit of credit. "I'm not too sure where she'll go from here. It looked a good race today and she possibly could be sold now. If not, she is a really nice mare to look forward to over hurdles." Additional reporting by Donal Murphy
