Concorde Landed, a star in the making, has emerged victorious in the Naas five-furlong opener, solidifying her status as a TDN Rising Star. This remarkable performance, achieved with a five-length lead, showcases her natural speed and relaxed demeanor, setting the stage for an exciting future in horse racing.
The Paddy Twomey-trained filly, a 13-8 favorite, demonstrated her prowess by effortlessly moving from the rear to the stands' rail, passing two out. Her victory over Ballydoyle's Snowing, a half-sister to the high-class Maljoom, and Fly Smartly, a debutante, further cements her potential. Jockey Billy Lee attributed her success to her prior experience at breeze-ups, highlighting her natural speed and relaxed nature.
Twomey, impressed by her performance, noted that her success is rare for a trainer. He expressed confidence in her capabilities, mentioning her potential for the Roses or Lowther races at York. The €200,000 Tattersalls Ireland Breeze-Up purchase has already shown her mettle, leaving a lasting impression on the racing world.
This triumph marks Concorde Landed's return to form after a no-show at Cork Racecourse. Her victory in the Irish EBF Race at Naas Racecourse is her eighth win in 24 starts, showcasing her consistency and talent. As she continues her racing career, her natural speed and relaxed approach make her a formidable contender, leaving a lasting impact on the racing community and fans alike.
