LIRAO (Lujain) sizzled at the far turn in trouncing ODYSSEY BLUE, MONA LISA and RD SPECTRUM in a 1500 m race at the San Lazaro Carmona Leisure Park.
Ridden for the first time by 2006 jockey of the year JB Hernandez, LIRAO was 5th at the mid-backstretch when she zoomed to the lead and won pulling away at the stretch. She was timed 1:36 for that effort
This is her third win in her career and first as a three year old since she is a Southern hemisphere racehorse.
I bought LIRAO and PRIDE AND JOY in the Magic Millions October 2005 yearling sale in 'Gold Coast, Australia. Both have collected six wins and many runner-up places, thus earning their keep and helping our stable.
