The strength of the opposition is obviously debatable but she couldn't have won with much more authority.
Areutherepeg was another filly with a previous effort behind her and she was another to show some improvement when staying on from off the pace.
The race included four newcomers and Petrafied, a €22,000 yearling purchase performed with credit ahead of Urban Beach, who is eligible now for a nursery.
Beat The Boss and The Pier raced prominently for a time but they weakened along with the 66-rated Lady Ruler, while another to disappoint was the 67-rated Tatacoa.
The stewards inquired into an incident inside the final furlong involving Petrafield, Running Flame and Lady Ruler, and after examining video evidence took no action.
