Gorgeous Noora scores at Lingfield

Gorgeous Noora went another step towards confirming her early promise for Luca Cumani with a cosy success over 6 furlongs at Lingfield on Tuesday.

Settled in mid division by Luke Morris, she made good headway to wear down the leaders and win by half a length.

Gorgeous Noora was bought by Tony Nerses for 370,000gns out of the Rathbarry Stud draft at Book 2 of last year’s Tattersalls October Sale.

Bred by Kabansk Ltd and Rathbarry Stud, she is the second foal out of the Listed-placed Aneedah, an Invincible Spirit sister to high-class sprinter Muthmir. Aneedah is also a half-sister to Group 3-winning juvenile My Titania.
