I've upgraded to XCode 6, reinstalled the iOS 7.1 simulator and now my Xamarin app is terminated immediately after the launch image is shown. The Application Output is as follows:
Starting iPad 2
Launching application
Application launched. PID = 97972
Press enter to terminate the application
>
Application Terminated
If I choose the iOS8 simulator then it runs without issue.
Are there any settings I need to manually change or is there anywhere I can get better debug information?

Thanks
The issue was related to the "Linker behaviour". Updating this from "Don't Link" to "Link SDK assemblies only" resolved my issue.
