Supposing overcame a ten-week break to open her account in the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Fillies Maiden at Leopardstown.

The 81-rated daughter of Invincible Spirit was sent off the 7/4 favourite, and she duly justified her market position with a solid victory here on just her fourth career start.

The David Wachman-trained filly led early in the straight, and stayed on well inside the final furlong for Wayne Lordan to beat Spirited by a length and a half.

Lordan said, “She had the good runs under her belt. She travelled and got the trip well.

"It’s nice to get her head in front. She kept going well and is a very straight forward filly.”
