O’Reilly Cyrus makes perfect start

WS home-bred O’Reilly Cyrus, by O’Reilly, made the perfect start to her career when she won the juvenile sprint on debut last Saturday.

Trained by Liam Birchley, she was a $100,000 purchase from Waikato Stud’sdraft at Karaka last year for the Eagle Farm horseman.

O’Reilly Cyrus is out of the Masterclass mare Dancing Mistress, who is the dam of the stakes winner Savour The Moment (Savabeel). It is also the family of the Gr 1 Manawatu Sires’ Produce Stakes winner O’Marilyn.

O’Reilly Cyrus is now 4th on the order of entry for the 2016 $1 million Karaka Million
