Kaya all class in Loder Race

Lady Kaya looks a filly with a very bright future after destroying her rivals in the Loder Irish EBF Fillies Race at the Curragh today.

Sheila Lavery 's charge was heavily supported for the seven-furlong contest, backed from 100/30 this morning and eventually going to post the 13/8 favourite.

Robbie Colgan bounced out in front and the daughter of Dandy Man was clear after a couple of furlongs.

She was pushed out to maintain her advantage inside the final furlong, going on to post a comprehensive 10-length success over newcomer Pink Dogwood

The winner had been a promising third to Decrypt in a maiden here over six back in June.

“We knew we had something special but until they go out and do it you don't know how special,” said Lavery.

“I've been physically ill all day and that was just a bit awesome.

“Robbie said they weren't coming with him and he said 'oh God I feel stupid'.  He said it was just like a swinging canter for her and he just pushed her out at the end to teach her a bit.

“I don't think she even thinks she's had a race. Robbie just said it felt so easy and he didn't look like he was going too fast it just looked like a nice swing up the Old Vic.

“That's some difference. She had gone in her coat and that trouble I had with the water had really effected her. We gave her a piece of work a couple of weeks ago and she blew like a train.

“She just looked like a nice filly but not what we saw there. I think the problem I had really was stopping them so hopefully now it's onwards and upwards.

“She has loads of big entries and got the seven really easy there so I'll just sit down with John and Joanne, who own her.

“I'd say the phone is going to be hopping. It was hopping the last time and it's going to be really hopping this time. It would be a really brave route to hang on to her.

“I'll pass it on and they can make the call. She's class, that's all I can say.

“I was delighted to see the bit of rain, not saying she wouldn't go on it but I didn't want to run her on good to firm.

“Luckily she has all the big entries and we can pick and choose now she has broke her maiden if we hang on to her.”
