Pins’ daughter Reilly Lincoln strikes again

11 January 2016

Smart sprinter Reilly Lincoln continued her impressive strike rate at Awapuni on Saturday.

The Pins mare claimed the Rating 85 under rider Darryl Bradley contest to post the fifth win of her 10-start career.

Reilly Lincoln trailed a good speed and needed little encouragement to take a run along the fence.

“It was a lovely ride by Darryl to get the split on the inside,” trainer Lisa Latta said.

Out of an O’Reilly mare, Reilly Lincoln has won all of her races over the 1200 metre trip.
