In a well executed run, jockey Bryan Cooper had his mount in third and travelling well approaching two out, moving into the lead in the final furlong, staying on well to record a comfortable victory over Red Key by two lengths.
The Mervyn Torrens charge’s two prior victories had been achieved on the level and she may start again on the Flat on Sunday.
“She keeps going and going. She’s in again at Dundalk on Sunday and if she comes out of this grand she’ll go again,” said winning trainer Torrens.
“I’m a bit afraid of the ground turning on her as people are talking about a change in the weather.
“It’s just a pity there isn’t something with blacktype about for her.”
A fence campaign for next season is under consideration.
“We were thinking about it for next year as she does jump really well. We haven’t ruled it out.
“If she jumps fences like she jumps hurdles we’d have a right one for next year. The only thing is that she’s a filly and we wouldn’t want to get her hurt.”
