Willie Mullins' Dani Barcelona made an impressive debut in the mares' bumper at Clonmel.
The 8/13 favourite tanked to the front reaching the final furlong and readily swept home by four lengths. Ask For Fame (7/2) came in second, half a length up on Slate Gray (22/1).
Jockey Patrick Mullins said: "She is quite small like her mother (Dani California) and could go back to the Flat no problem.
"She loves that good ground - her mother was a Cesarewitch winner and was a similar type."
