Kilashee romps home by 38 lengths! Confirmed front-runner Kilashee (3/1 favourite) was an unchallenged winner of the second split of the 80-95 handicap hurdle under Shane Fitzgerald. A winner over fences at Clonmel last month and third over hurdles at Sligo five days ago, the Bitview Partnership's nine-year-old was soon clear before being given a breather early on the final circuit. Going on again after two out, she came right away from toiling rivals and the winning margin over Cruisin Susan was a remarkable 38 lengths. Over to you, handicapper! Trainer John Ryan said: "Kilcarry Bridge is her brother who won nine races and Willie Mullins had New Kid In Town another brother, it’s some family. They want to go out and race and they wear their heart on their sleeve. “Shane Fitz is the only man to have won on her. He’s coming into me a few days a week and that’s his third winner for me this year. I’m delighted for him as he’s a great lad and it’s great to see him back riding winners. “We’ll mix it between hurdles and fences with her and hopefully the handicapper won’t be too hard on her.” Quotes from Alan Magee
