Aidan O'Brien and Ryan Moore landed a Listed-race double when Cuff scorched clear to land the Coolmore Stud EBF Fillies' Sprint Stakes at Naas.
Moore was happy to hold up the 11-4 favourite early on, but after squeezing through a gap on the rail she quickened away to score by three lengths from Yulong Baobei
O'Brien grabbed a one-two in the Coolmore War Command Rochestown Stakes.
Moore selected correctly in partnering Peace Envoy (15-8) who made all the running and despite jinking slightly at the furlong pole, he always had enough to hold stablemate Lundy by half a length.
O'Brien and Moore's bid for a treble in the Bar One Racing Lacken Stakes was foiled as Washington DC could not reel in Only Mine
Joseph Murphy's 16-1 chance shot clear over a furlong out and Gary Carroll was able to drive him home to a two-and-three-quarter length success in the Group Three contest.< Anamba missed her intended reappearance in last week's Irish 1000 Guineas, but wasted no time in getting back to winning ways in the Listed Owenstown Stud Stakes.
William Buick stuck to the rail on the 3-1 joint-favourite, and she shot through the gap when it arrived, eventually winning by two lengths from Hasanour giving Michael Halford a one-two in the race.
Buick made it a double when guiding Willie McCreery's Aridity (4-1) home in the Follow Us On Facebook Handicap.
Hazmyra got off the mark at the first attempt with an accomplished display in the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Fillies Maiden.
Backed into 9-4 favourite before the off, Dermot Weld's filly travelled kindly for Pat Smullen behind the leaders, and they found a perfect gap to hit the front a furlong out before running on well to beat Cry Me A River by a length and three-quarters.< Johann Bach (10-1) landed the New BBQ Evening Format At Naas Handicap for trainer Patrick Harney and jockey Gary Halpin.
