Burn Baby Byrne heads to the sales following two solid efforts in five-year-old-mares’ maidens this season. The daughter of Malinas made her debut appearance at Belclare in March where she finished just two lengths runner-up to the eye-catching BrightsideofLife. Building on that experience gained, her next start saw her run another creditable race for her connections at Durrow. Leading from flag-fall, Burn Baby Byrne was joined at the penultimate fence and crossed the line in front but was later demoted to second following alleged interference approaching the final fence. This athletic mare travelled and jumped well throughout and showed a good blend of both speed and stamina which highlights her as a strong contender if she was to run in a bumper. Out of a half-sister to the talented mare Senorita Rumbalita she is also from the family of the 14-time winner, Cybrandian and looks like a mare that could be a real money spinner for her new connections.
