Lake Geneva, the third place-getter in this year’s Blue Diamond and Golden Slipper – Australia’s best maiden – has broken her maiden in an safe performance at Hawkesbury.
Taking on a maiden-class field in a set-weights race, Lake Geneva jumped well, travelled beautifully for jockey Tommy Berry and was only let go at the closing stages to win comfortably by a length.
She was the shortest price maiden seen in quite some time, jumping at $1.05 on course and $1.10 the tote in NSW.
Ubet paid $1 the win and $1 the place, returning just money back, in a poor result.
The Hawkes stable had Lake Geneva fresh for the race, carrying some condition and without her coat shining through, with bigger and better races up next for the class filly.

That's very poor of Ubet one could suggest that's an attempt of theft from them ...
