Twomey targets black type with Raven's Cry Raven's Cry made it two from three with success in the opening median auction race on Killarney's card. Paddy Twomey's filly tracked front-running Paso Doble in a close second before she was pushed along by Billy Lee to lead with two and a half furlongs to travel. Her main market rival, Baby Zeus, came with a challenge passing the two pole. The pair went on at the furlong marker but Baby Zeus couldn't get on terms with the leader who was ridden clear in the final 100 yards. The 8/11 favourite delivered by three and a quarter lengths from the 13/8 chance. Paddy Twomey said: "She is a nice filly and this race fitted in well after Galway and conditions suited. She had run over a mile previously at Bellewstown so I thought she'd be ok doing that today. "William (Kennedy, owner) bred her and she is the first foal so we'd like to get a bit of black type. "She has plenty of options, she is in the Moyglare and Prix Marcel Boussac and races like the Ingabelle Stakes (at Leopardstown) or the Moyglare would be an option next. It depends on how she comes out of this but the aim will be to get black type." Raven's Cry finished runner-up on debut before obliging in Ballybrit. She holds an entry in the Group One Moyglare Stud Stakes at the Curragh next month. Additional reporting by Tom Weekes
