Choice And Chance bounced back from a disappointing effort last time to claim the Foran Equine Irish EBF Auction Maiden at Fairyhouse for Jessica Harrington.
The 9/2 shot travelled ominously well early in the straight in the six furlong contest and challenged passing the two pole.
Shane Foley sent her to the front with over a furlong to run and she kept on well in the closing stages to post a length-and-a-quarter winning margin over even-money favourite Prairie Dancer
The winner had been a promising third on her debut at the Curragh but disappointed at a short price when ninth at Naas last month.
“She just wasn't right after Naas but we knew she was back in good form and this was the run we were meant to see in Naas,” said Harrington.
“She's another two-year-old winner, which is great.
“She travelled really well but was green as grass and changed her legs about three times. She was looking this way and that.
“She likes a bit of nice ground and is a proper six furlong filly. We'll see what there is for her now and she might go up in grade.”
