Snap Alam made a successful drop in trip to run out a convincing winner of the fillies handicap at Sligo.

Joanna Morgan 's charge had recorded her three previous successes at just over a mile but the sharper trip proved no problem tonight.

Declan McDonogh had his mount prominent and joined front-runner Kateeva at half-way.

The daughter of Alamshar edged ahead turning for home and stayed on strongly in the closing stages to record a two-and-a-quarter success. Zelos Dream stayed on from the pack to finish runner-up but never looked likely to get to the winner.

The 11/2 winner (from 9/2) had made her seasonal return just three days ago at Limerick.

Well-backed 3/1 favourite September Lily (from 11/2) could only finish sixth.
