Una's Pleasure took the ladies' bumper in good style for trainer John Joe Walsh at 13/2.

Approaching the turn-in, the six-year-old mare raced in fourth as Glendine River set the pace.

She improved to hit the front with over two furlongs to travel. Seeking Susan (6/1) tried to hunt her down but Sheila Ahern didn't have to get serious with the winner. The pair kept up the pace and increased the lead over Seeking Susan to six and a half lengths at the winning post.

Glendine River, the 5/1 favourite, kept on at one pace after being headed and came in third.

"All the Presentings seem to like nice ground so I was afraid of the going today but Sheila gave her a cool ride," handler John Joe Walsh said.

"She did it nicely and will go hurdling next in three weeks."
