Ahaaly set for bigger things after easy maiden win
The Exceed And Excel filly displayed commendable speed throughout the six-furlong contest and readily stretched clear to slam Wasabi’s House by three and a half lengths, to the delight of winning rider Declan McDonogh, who suggested: “I suppose she was entitled to win on her run in Limerick, but she could be nice.”
He added: “She’s a well-bred filly and should be capable of progressing from this. She used to be quite hot at home, but she seems to be settling down and won well. I’m not sure where the boss will go with her, but she should be competitive at a higher level.”
