Lucinda Woodruff Celebrates Fabulous Feature First
Third generation trainer Lucinda Woodruff celebrated her maiden feature success on the biggest day on the SA racing calendar, when the Ridgemont bred 4yo Café Culture beat a high-quality field to win the R500 000 Gr2 Post Merchants.
There can’t be a bigger platform than the Hollywoodbets Durban July day for any up-and -coming young trainer to celebrate the milestone of a first feature success and the Milnerton-based daughter of champion Geoff Woodruff, and granddaughter of late legend Terrance Millard, Lucinda has stepped up to show she has both the genes and the oomph that it takes to break through in one of the world’s toughest professions.
