Blue Uluru made it two wins from three starts when running out a convincing winner of the €40,000 Irish Stallion Farms EBF Premier Nursery at Navan.

Colin Keane tracked the leaders on the well-backed 2/1 favourite (13/2 this morning) and she was produced to lead over a furlong from home in the five-furlong contest.

The Ger Lyons-trained filly was soon in control and kept on strongly in the closing stages to post a a length-and-a-quarter winning margin over Red Persian

The winner had scored on her debut at Fairyhouse before finishing fifth in a conditions event at the Curragh last month.

“She did what we thought she would do and is a filly that we like,” said Lyons.

“One of the owners, Amy Vaughan King, flew in from Texas for the day to see her run at the Curragh the last day. The ground was wrong but we let her run.

“On another day we probably would have withdrawn her but she learned plenty from it and got her mark. The other owner is Nicky Varney who is based in New York.

“The aim is to go black type as she is owner bred but she just has to learn to switch off a tad more. She is just too honest.

“Hopefully she will be a lovely filly next year. She will probably go for the Blenheim Stakes.”
