Lady Lucifer shows a hot pair of heels

Lady Lucifer scores a comfortable maiden win at start 3

---

Powerful mare Lady Lucifer showed her rivals a hot pair of heels to break her maiden in impressive fashion first up from a spell on her home track.

Prepared by the very astute David Vandyke from his boutique Sunshine Coast stable, Lady Lucifer gave her league of supporters little stress despite the short quote of $1.35.

The win came at the Hellbent mares third career start. She placed second at her only two prior runs last preparation, also at the Sunshine Coast.

​Lady Lucifer ran into smart maiden winners at both starts. She was defeated by Thankyou Henry and Super Daisy last prep, with both horses going right on with it since in the City.

“Lady Lucifer has just needed that bit of time to grow into her big frame,” said OnTrack CEO Grant Morgan.

“Full credit to her ownership group who have allowed David (Vandyke) and myself to give her the necessary time.

“As a result she is a very sound lightly raced 4yo who has been given positive experiences to build her confidence.

“I think we all get carried away with a horses age sometimes. We forget they don’t stop growing until the end of their 4yo year.

“Fewer horses are racing at 2 now and some horses still really aren’t even mature as 3yo’s.

“None of that matters in the end if you have a nice horse to show for it later on.

“I think she has huge upside now,” said Morgan.

Lady Lucifer was purchased by Morgan at the 2022 Inglis Classic Sale from the Yarraman Park draft for $55,000.
