Lady springs 125/1 shock in finale Railwayview Lady sprang a 125/1 shock when getting on top close home to claim the concluding Lynn Lodge Stud Maiden at Navan this afternoon. The Andy Oliver-trained filly had been slightly unlucky in running when fifth on her most recent outing at Leopardstown but was friendless in the market today. She was produced to challenge passing the furlong pole by Adam Caffrey. 40/1 shot Navinsky gained a narrow lead inside the final furlong but was worn down late on by the winner, who scored by a neck. Oliver said:- "Her first run was education and on her second run she just got held up and into all sorts of trouble at Leopardstown at the bend. "We knew coming here she was still a bit green, she has her own way of doing things. We knew the ability was there and we were hoping that this track would suit her. Ground and everything went to plan. "Adam gave her a lovely ride, finished well. She needed every yard of it actually, and I'm delighted with that. "It is small steps. She will handle a bit of cut, so we have options towards the end of the year and I think it is only the start of her career. "The syndicate is three brothers from Dromore - the Mackey brothers and I would have played rugby with them. That's how long back we go! “They have waited patiently and deserved the win. They are great lads and have thoroughly deserved the win." (Quotes by Michael Graham)
