Saffron Lady too strong and too classy!
Saffron Lady is certainly beginning to live up to her ability when breaking her maiden in a fresh up state at Pukekohe today under a very confident ride by inform jockey Michael McNab.
After settling at the rear end of the field, Saffron Lady travelled sweetly throughout before looking to get balanced and make her move at the top of the straight. From there the three-year-old daughter of Iffraaj let down a strong turn of foot to pick up the field eventually winning with plenty in hand.
“She’s obviously had her quirks and tricks, but she turned up to race today and she is improving by the day,” co-trainer Pam Gerard said.
Saffron Lady was a New Zealand Bloodstock LTD purchase by Ballymore's appointed bloodstock agent Paul Moroney, while she carries the colours of long-time client Barry & Deidrre Neville-White.
Congratulations to owners Ballymore Stables NZ Ltd, BG & DG Neville-White Partnership, P G Magill, D & R Sims & Ms G Workman.
