Aidan O'Brien and Ryan Moore doubled up at Naas with fast-finishing Emily Dickinson in the Race & Stay Fillies Maiden over 1m2f.
The pair switched left and began to make their move in mid-division at the two pole. They still had plenty on their plate in fifth a furlong out.
However, Emily Dickinson really picked up the chase in the final 150 yards as she closed on the heels of the leaders.
Nothing came home better than her as she surged past Red Azalea in the final strides to justify 11/10 favouritism by a neck.
Runner-up Red Azalea was a 5/1 chance and was three parts of a length in front of Emily Dickinson's stablemate Ark (9/1).
O’Brien said: “Ryan said she was still very green and when he went to come through they kept coming over in front of him. They went a good gallop and she stayed very well.
“I’d be very happy to step up in distance and she’ll probably go for an Oaks trial.
“Wayne(Lordan)’s filly (Ark) stays very well. It was a solid run race and they had to learn.”
