Fran Berry who took the riding honours produced the 4/1 shot to lead two furlongs from home and kept on for a cosy win over 9/4 favourite Truth Seeking
Pat Downes manager of the Aga Khan’s studs in Ireland reported: “It was nice to get a win out of a nicely bred filly.”
“We’ll see what the handicapper does and I think she’ll get another couple of furlongs.”
