Lavish springs 20/1 surprise on debut 20/1 shot Pretty Lavish got a nice run up the rail to land the spoils on her debut at Gowran Park this afternoon. The Natalia Lupini-trained filly was held up early in the median sires series fillies maiden and Wayne Lordan plotted a course down the inner in the closing stages. She had to wait for a run, having been hampered early in the straight, but got to the front inside the final furlong and asserted late on to record a length-and-a-quarter win over I Can Imagine. The winner had only cost owner Ben Dalton €6,000 as a yearling at last year's Orby Sale Book 2. Lordan said:- “It’s a filly they like, and she has a lovely pedigree. “She’s quite tall and they thought she might be a bit weak on that ground. I think she’s going to be a grand filly next year. “My instructions were to let her find her feet, ride her to be finishing and she’ll come home well. We went a good gallop, and I got a good run down the inside. The rail helped her, and she won well at the line. “She feels like she is going to stay well.” (Quotes by Alan Magee)
