AIRLIE Beach rounded off her racing career in tremendous style with a typically game success in the Listed Ardilaun Hotel Oyster Stakes at Galway.

The Willie Mullins-trained mare had won eight of her previous 13 starts including six races over hurdles – featuring the Grade 1 Royal Bond Novice Hurdle at Fairyhouse – a bumper and, most recently, a first victory on the flat at Tramore.
