Jasaara stepped forward from her debut effort at Naas, as she took the third at Roscommon, the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Fillies Maiden.
The Dermot Weld trained Lemon Drop Kid bay was beaten ten and a half lengths at the Co Kildare venue, finishing third there behind Belle Boyd.
Stepped up to a mile and two this evening, she touched 5s on-course, before going off a 4/1 chance under Pat Smullen.
Settled behind the leaders, she moved into second before the entrance to the straight. She was ridden to the front over a furlong out, keeping on well from there to score by two and three parts of a length.
The Jim Bolger trained Sin Sin was sent off the 10/3 favourite, and she finished second under Kevin Manning. Our Anniversary who was vying for favouritism, was withdrawn at the start.
Smullen said afterwards: "She responded well under pressure and it's nice to get a winning bracket for her. It's very testing ground and she showed a good attitude."
STEWARDS REPORT
The Stewards informed Mrs D.A.Love, trainer that Our Anniversary (FR), would have to be recertified before being declared to run from stalls again.
