How High The Moon produced an impressive performance on her debut to overcome trouble in running in a dramatic Loder (EBF) Fillies Race at the Curragh.

5/2 favourite Camellia Japonica unshipped her jockey Shane Foley passing the four pole in the seven-furlong contest after appearing to clip heels and stumble.

The regally-bred How High The Moon was then hampered by the loose horse two-and-a-half furlongs out and had to switch and come wide.

She picked up in fine style inside the final furlong to get to the front and was pulling away, under Seamie Heffernan late on, for a length-and-three-quarters success.

The winner is a full-sister to Pretty Polly winner Diamondsandrubies.

"She's a nice filly, and you would have to be happy with that. She will have learned a lot," said Aidan O'Brien.

"She's a full-sister to Diamondsandrubies, who was a bit disappointing as a two-year-old. She can come back here for the Debutante Stakes or she has a number of other options."

Paddy Power introduced the winner at 14/1 for next year's Oaks.
