Talia a local winner for Lupini A return to seven furlongs worked the oracle for 10/3 favourite Talia in the handicap for three-year-olds and upwards rated 47-75. A plethora of horses held chances racing to the final furlong, but it was Talia who found most at the business end for Billy Lee to fend off Red Heel (11/1) by a head. Hijo De La Luna was just a short head back in third at 14/1. Natalia Lupini said: "She didn't quite get the mile at the Curragh - she wasn't beaten far, only three lengths. "Seven furlongs is ideally her trip. She finds and she is honest and a genuine filly. "We really fancied her today over this trip on that mark, so hopefully there is more improvement. "We will maybe take a couple of weeks easy with her and go again." Talia also won over seven furlongs at Cork last summer.
