Trainers Mick Price and Michael Kent Jr will keep Kurabui racing through her grades despite making it four-from-four with another victory at Sandown.

The Mick Price and Michael Kent Jr-trained Kurabui has maintained her unbeaten record with a comfortable victory at Sandown.

Kurabui took out the Ladbrokes Blended Multi Handicap (1600m) on Wednesday to stretch her winning sequence to four after commencing her racing career late last year.

Under a copybook ride by Jamie Kah, Kurabui was sent off the $1.60 favourite in defeating La Chevalee ($4) by 1-¼ lengths with Livvy Lass ($21) 3-¾ lengths away third.

“If you could ask for a certain ride on that horse, that was it,” Kent Jr said.

“It worked out perfectly. Barrier two and I was concerned she would get stuck on the fence at some point, but Jamie is so good at getting them in the right spot.

“To be fifth, one-off, on a genuine tempo, and I don’t think she pulled the stick, it was very nice to watch.

“While that looked easy, four-from-four is not easy to achieve.

“She’s very progressive. She can absorb pressure, she has a good turn of foot, she’s got a good temperament.

“She’s very bullet-proof at this stage.”

A four-year-old daughter of Proisir, Kurabui is a half-sister to dual Melbourne Cup contestant Surprise Baby.

Kent Jr said there was no immediate rush to get Kurabui to a higher grade.

“There’s a benchmark 78 mile race here at Sandown in two weeks’ time, but we’ll see what the boss wants to do,” Kent Jr said.

“I think we’ll keep her at a mile, there’s no need to go any further yet, but anyway, it’s a good problem to have.”

Kah said Kurabui was a jockey’s dream to ride.

“I didn’t have to use the whip. She does it all,” Kah said.

“And I really like the way she extended today with that weight.”
