Pat Smullen is the man to have on your side at Naas and he was at the number one spot for the second time in as many races when Sorelle Delle Rose (6/5 favourite) took the Irish Stallion Farms E.B.F. Fillies Maiden at her ease.

Half-an-hour previous victorious on James Nash's T For Tango here Smullen rode Sorelle Delle Rose for Moyglare Stud Farm and his boss Dermot Weld.

The once previously raced daughter of Dark Angel asserted in the final furlong to beat Camiyra by three lengths.

"She has been working nicely and will appreciate seven furlongs. The Athasi Stakes is the next logical progression with her. She's adaptable ground wise," said Weld.

The Turf Club Veterinary Officer examined Elegant Emmeline trained by J.G.Coogan, at the request of the Stewards and reported the animal to be blowing hard post race.
