Kerasha, a homebred two year old filly by Daylami, totally dominated proceedings on her debut, running out the facile winner of a six furlong maiden race at Saint-Cloud. Highly rated by her connections, having shown plenty of speed on the gallops, Kerasha broke well and settled just behind the leader. She was not extended in the straight to win by two lengths.

Christophe Soumillon commented after the race: "She is incredible, I never asked anything of her. I went past the post as if I was going down to the start, and I still had several gears to go!"

Out of the Storm Bird mare Keraka, a Group III winner over six furlongs at two, Kerasha looks to have plenty of ability of her own and she will now be prepared for a tilt at stakes company next time out.
