A Lilac Rolla makes it three wins from as many starts by grinding out victory in the Group 3 "Priory Belle" Stakes on return.

Paddy Twomey is poised to have no fewer than three runners, as his yard boasts a strong contingent of promising fillies. Among them, the unbeaten filly A Lilac Rolla has recently made her mark. She secured victory in the Group Three Priory Belle at Leopardstown, outperforming Natalia Lupini’s Kitty Rose in her seasonal debut on heavy ground.
A Lilac Rolla’s impressive performance in the Guineas trial at Leopardstown followed a successful juvenile season. She won her debut race at Cork and then triumphed in a Curragh contest. Notably, she prevailed ahead of subsequent winners in the Newtownanner Stud Stakes and the Prix Marcel Boussac, including the talented filly Opera Singer.
Additionally, another promising filly, Purple Lily, is a winner of a Galway maiden last season, and showcased her ability by securing a three-length victory in the TRM Equine Nutrition Race at Naas in her first start this year. Trainer Paddy Twomey is taking a patient approach with Purple Lily, aiming to target the Irish Classic, which is three weeks later than the Newmarket edition.
It’s an exciting lineup of fillies, and Twomey’s yard looks well-prepared for the prestigious race!
