Lady Iman Aims to Make History in Coolmore Wootton Bassett Nunthorpe Stakes
Lady Iman, a rapid two-year-old filly trained by Ger Lyons, is set to make her mark in the racing world as she aims to become the first two-year-old to win the Coolmore Wootton Bassett Nunthorpe Stakes since Kingsgate Native in 2007.
The filly, who has not previously won this prestigious sprint, has been supplemented for the 2025 Nunthorpe Stakes at a cost of £40,000. This decision was made by her owner, Roger O'Callaghan, after her impressive performances, which include winning the Group 3 Molecomb Stakes.
Lady Iman's chances in the 17-strong field are considered strong, with many experts and the market viewing her as the one to beat. Her form and connections, including trainer Ger Lyons and jockey Joe Fanning, give her a promising outlook for the race.
Roger O'Callaghan, excited about the possibility of Lady Iman achieving Group 1 glory at York on Friday week, has supplemented his juvenile filly for the Nunthorpe Stakes. However, it is worth noting that Ger Lyons was overruled by O'Callaghan in the decision to enter the race.
If Lady Iman manages to win the Nunthorpe Stakes, she will make history as the first juvenile filly to do so since Lyric Fantasy in 1992. Currently, she is the 4-1 market leader for the race.
