Glamorous put her jumping experience to good use when claiming the maiden hurdle at Clonmel.
There were plenty in with a shout turning for home in the two-mile contest and three jumped the second last upsides.
The trio were locked together going to the last and Regal One jumped it upsides the eventual winner with Tugboat just behind in third.
Regal One got it wrong at the final flight, however, and that handed the advantage to Jessica Harrington's charge.
She asserted on the run-in to score by a length-and-a-quarter from newcomer Regal One with hurdling debutant Tugboat (5/2f) third.
"She took a blow going to the last and met it wrong, otherwise she would have won easier," said the winning jockey Robbie Power afterwards.
"She's a bit stronger a mare than last year and finished out her race better."
