TAYLOR Kingsley made quite the impression on her Irish debut at a sun kissed Tramore on Friday last, partnering newcomer Chef D’etat to a narrow win in the concluding Kilbarry (Ladies Pro/Am) INH Flat Race.

A daughter of South Carolina-based trainer and former jockey Arch Kingsley, the 17-year-old has already made an impact in America, riding eight winners. Teaming-up with John ‘Shark’ Hanlon, the promising young amateur settled her mount behind the leaders, improving to challenge with over a furlong to race.
