With a hood back on Rock On Rosie popped up at odds of 25/1 under Shane Shortall in the Joe Cooney Memorial Handicap Hurdle at Kilbeggan.

Adrian Joyce 's Gamut mare got the better of Cloudy Morning and Emmy Lou by two and three parts of a length, and a neck, in this extended two mile three furlong affair.

"I thought she would win the last day and she let me down big time. She was very keen and still green," said Joyce.

"We decided to drop her in today and see if she settled. She works so well at home and way better than her mark.

"Today was a fact finding mission with a hood on. She always showed loads but was very disappointing last time.

"She done it today and that's what matters. She's owned by Mick Devine, who is a Super Intendant in Navan, and his wife Geraldine. It's good for them and they've been great owners."
