Hamley (7/1) stayed on strongly to take the featured fillies' handicap in Roscommon by four and a quarter lengths.

The five-year-old mare made relentless progress on the outer from the two pole to hit the front approaching the final furlong.

She strode right away under Ben Coen in the final 100 yards to win well for the Stable Friends Syndicate

Trainer Peter Fahey said: "She wasn't running at 9.50am yesterday morning to be honest but we saw there wasn't a huge field and I rang Kevin O'Ryan (jockeys' agent) and he said there's a chance of it cutting up so we said we'd let her take her chance.

"I was worried about the ground but it dried out all week and it's great. The plan is to go to the Curragh on Champions Weekend; she always runs well at the Curragh and will definitely get in now.

"She's an ideal filly for her syndicate and she always runs a good race for them." Dancing Doll came in second at 16/1. She was half a length in front of Espoir D'soleil (6/1).
