A step up in distance proved just what this daughter of Champion 3YO Dundeel as looking for at Ballarat on Thursday.

Dunlani as a yearlingPrepared by Matt Cumani, three year-old filly Dunlani was a hot favourite for the 1600 metre maiden and overcame an outside gate to run away and win by two lengths at her fourth start.
