Luvya Mumma, a full sister to ‘Country Cups King’ galloper Station One, won easily at Kilmore races last week.
As one punter said afterwards … “she had to win with that name and Valentine’s Day just round the corner”.
Macedon Ranges trainer Liam Howley said Luvya Mumma, by Toranado from Alittle Loose, looked to be a promising filly.
Station One has been a great money spinner for the local stable, accumulating $401,550 in stakes from 39 starts for connections.
Kyneton, Woodend, Traralgon, Marong and Dunkeld Cups are among the very consistent galloper’s wins.
After recent thirds at Hamilton and Geelong, Luvya Mumma was sent out as second favourite in the 1612 metre Maiden at Kilmore.
Jockey Alana Kelly took her straight to the front, and had 1.8 lengths to spare over On Broadway at the finish.
MARONG CUP WIN
Howley won the 2024 Marong Cup with Station One, and took out this year’s Cup on Saturday with favourite Bogues.
Rose Hammond rode the winner in the 2200 metre feature event at Bendigo.
Bogues had run a very close second in the Woodend Cup at his previous run.
The large group of owners were pleased to be able to win a Cup race.
An eight-event race meeting is being held at Kyneton today (Tuesday).
Free entry applies, with the first race at 1.30pm.
