Concert Hall sealed a treble for Aidan O'Brien and a double for Ryan Moore when just getting the better of Magical Lagoon in the Listed Salsabil Stakes over 1m2f at Navan.
The 2/1 favourite tussled with the leader Magical Lagoon in the final 150 yards and put her head on the line when it mattered.
She got up a short head from the 10/1 runner-up. There was a gap of three and three quarter lengths back to Cairde Go Deo (3/1 from 9/2) in third.
O'Brien said: "We are delighted with her. She has done well over the winter and she liked the trip.
"She is out of an Oaks winner. As she goes up (in trip), she should get better. That's what she did today and she did well to get through. She has a bit of class."
When asked if next stop is Epsom, he said: "Yes, I think so."
Paddy Power cut her from 12/1 to 8/1 for the Cazoo Oaks.
O'Brien and Moore teamed up with Aesop's Fables in the opening juvenile maiden and the trainer was also responsible for New York City (ridden by Wayne Lordan) in the preceding race on the card, the Listed Committed Stakes.
