Kissed scores on debut

There was plenty to like about the performance of the Aidan O’Brien trained Kissed which made a winning debut in the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Fillies Maiden at Navan today.

Ridden by the trainer’s son Joseph, the daughter of Galileo got the better of runner-up Violet Lashes inside the final furlong, to eventually win going away.

Afterwards the winning jockey said “I was a always happy with where I was in the race and she is a very nice filly.

“It’s very testing conditions out there and there should be plenty of improvement in her from here.”
