Matamata trainer Lance Noble has black type ambitions for a gifted pair of last-start maiden winners.

The three-year-olds Bohemian Lily and Realta both opened their accounts at Te Rapa last month and promise to handle the step up to feature races.

Well-related O’Reilly filly Bohemian Lily was successful over 1400 metres at her fourth appearance and she will step up to a mile in Saturday’s Gr.3 Lawn Master Eulogy Stakes at Awapuni.

“It fits in nicely and I think the further she goes the better and the Oaks distance should be spot on for her later,” Noble said.

The Kevin Hickman-owned three-year-old is a sister to the dual Group One Australian Derby and Guineas winner Shamrocker and a half-sister to the Gr.3 Sunline Vase winner and Gr.1 New Zealand Oaks placegetter Rock Diva.

“She’s always showed plenty of ability, but she’s needed a few runs to get everything right,” Noble said.

Realta was a second-up winner over a mile and will have one more outing before taking on Group company.

“There’s a special conditions race at Te Rapa on Saturday for her and as long as she goes well again then she’ll run in the Royal Stakes,” Noble said.

“She’s a genuine stayer and has kept improving and developing. She botched the start last time, but Cameron (Lammas) rode her beautifully from there and she hit the line really strongly.”

The half-sister by Red Giant to the winner and recent placegetter Longbeach, Realta is raced by an Easdon Lodge syndicate managed by Noble’s wife Leigh.
