The Jim Bolger-trained Scoil Naisiunta powered clear to take the mile nursery at Naas in great style.

Kevin Manning tracked the leaders on the 13/2 shot before hitting the front with two furlongs to run.

The daughter of Intense Focus pulled away from the field before the furlong marker and kept on strongly in the closing stages to post four-and-a-half length victory. Isaac Wonder stayed on to take the runner-up spot.

The winner had chased home Triple Sec at Tipperary last week and was wearing cheek-pieces for the first time today.

"The cheek-pieces woke her up a bit. I wasn't worried about the ground and she'll go for another nursery,” said Bolger.
