Hayes has a Flawless run around on the Filly
Flawless Filly holds off Las Encinas at Ballinrobe

Flawless Filly who went through the ring for 3,000 guineas at Tattersalls in July, rewarded her backers at odds of 14/1 in the Jennings Meats Handicap at Ballinrobe.
An eye-catcher when sixth in a first-time hood at Tipperary last Thursday, Paul Deegan's Clodovil filly was noted travelling well from some way out here.
In the colours of the Flawless Filly Partnership, Chris Hayes got room on the 14/1 chance from a furlong out and she kept on well to see off the challenge of Las Encinas (6s into 4s) by half a length.
Hayes explained: "We always thought a bit of her and that's why Paul bought her back at the sales.
"She's just been very slow to come to hand.
"I forgot to ring Paul this morning but Coyle (Paul, the stable representative here) told me that Paul fancied her well.
"I never had a moments worry on her and I got a lovely run around." (DM & EM)
