Debutant City Of Dubai, in the familiar Bond colours, bolstered Paddy Twomey’s impressive strike-rate in Killarney when landing the Irish Stallion Farms EBF 2-Y-0 Maiden on Monday. 

The race opened the five-day July festival, a race which was won last year by recent Dubai Duty Free Irish Derby victor Benvenuto Cellini.
