b f Desert Story (IRE) - Poscimur (IRE) (Prince Rupert)
Held up, headway early straight, 6th 1 1/2f out, 2nd 1f out, stayed on well to lead 75yds from finish (trainer said, regarding the improved form shown, filly has had maining problems during her career and is inconsistent but she had ran well off a similar weight in a Galway nursery last year, adding that the ground was too heavy at The Curragh on her seasonal debut and in her most recent race at Ballinrobe she missed the break, clipped heels down the back straight and may have resented the tongue strap)
