The E4,000 foal purchase and half-sister to four winners today scored a three parts of a length win over Luna's Luck
Lordan later said "she had been running very consistent. Her early form was good enough to win it, and back to six wasn't a problem. She was drawn a bit wide but she jumped good and I was able to get a good position.
"I'm delighted for the owners (Ol Stock Racing from Kerry, Galway and Dublin). They are a nice bunch of fellas and they will enjoy tonight."
