Little Clarinet completed a treble for Donnacha O'Brien and a quick cross card double for his brother Joseph, as she took the concluding TRM's 'Kurasyn' Handicap.
Previously trained by David Marnane, the daughter of Requinto had been knocking on the door of late, and was unlucky over the course and distance on her last start, when hampered in the closing stages by a loose horse.
Sent off the 11/4 favourite this evening, the five-year-old bay was prominent throughout in the centre of the track.
She was pushed along and led from the two furlong pole, keeping on well when ridden inside the final furlong, going on to prevail by three parts of a length. Miacomet (12/1) flew home to finish a never nearer second under Gary Halpin for Jack Davison, while Handsome Maverick (12/1) and Fugacious (16/1) were third and fourth respectively.
"She was probably due one of them because she was unlucky here on Guineas weekend," said Joseph O'Brien.
"She's a grand straight-forward filly and it's nice to get a win with her.
"Donnacha said a stiff six is good for her, so we'll keep her to that, and look for something similar again.
"She's a nice consistent sprint handicapper and we'll be able to keep her busy for the summer, hopefully.
"I think she's a little bit better on a straight track but other than that she's very versatile."
Donnacha O'Brien was earlier successful on Lope Y Fernandez and Micro Manage while Joseph O'Brien struck with Treasure Chest at Clonmel.
