Emily Dickinson looks to be on the path to the Gold Cup after winning the Listed Vintage Crop Stakes in Navan by five lengths.
She tracked the 5/4 favourite French Claim over this 1m6f trip and made headway to lead over a furlong from home.
The 11/8 shot drew clear in the final furlong for a decisive victory.
This sealed a double on the card for Aidan O'Brien and Ryan Moore who earlier teamed up with impressive juvenile newcomer River Tiber
O'Brien said: "She loves a trip and she relaxes, that's the key. She stays well and she has class as well. She's an exciting filly, she has a big engine.
"The plan was to come here and then go to Leopardstown for the Saval Beg. Then, hopefully, she will go from there to the Gold Cup.
"She is a filly that we always thought when she went beyond a mile and a half, we would see the best of her.
"She handles an ease in the ground well but she also handles quick ground."
Paddy Power made Emily Dickinson 4/1 from 6/1 for the Ascot Gold Cup and 12s from 25s for the Coronation Cup.
