Stepped out to 1400m, Keshi Boom settled back in the field and when angled into the clear was able to charge home and beat Super Smink by a length and a half running away.

Keshi Boom was a $120,000 Magic Millions Gold Coast March Yearling Sale purchase for Williams Racing from the Eureka Stud draft and she’s already banked over $100,000 in prizemoney from her first three starts.

Keshi Boom is a three-quarter sister-in-blood to Group II winner Prince of Boom and stakes-winner Simply Fly being the best of three winenrs from Pearls for Me, a winning half-sister by Red Dazzler to Group II winner Express Air.
