Lucy justifies short price on debut

The Willie Mullins-trained Dramalarma Lucy justified a short price on her debut when running out a convincing winner of the concluding bumper at Tramore.

The Yeats mare went to post a 4/5 shot on her first outing having been supported from 13/8 before racing.

Patrick Mullins tracked the leaders before sending his mount to the front running down the hill.

She galloped on strongly in the closing stages to post a five-and-a-half length winning margin over Boragh Beat

Willie Mullins said :- "She did it well and she is a nice filly by Yeats. She has shown me plenty at home. She got balloted out at Ballinrobe and I was disappointed with that, but it's good that she got in here.

"I don't know whether she'll go for a winners bumper, I might go jumping with her. She is more a hurdles mare than a winners bumper mare, but Patrick might have other ideas. We'll see."
