Miss Myers (14s into 12/1 on course) got in as a reserve and finished best under Joey Sheridan to take the Foran Equine Irish EBF Auction Maiden by two and a quarter lengths from Gold Brocade (7/1).
The 10/3 joint-favourites Call Of The Jungle and Early Bright were third and fourth. The winning daughter of Zoffany had finished mid-division on her debut at Naas, but had previously won a barrier trial.
Her dam is a half-sister to a Nassau Stakes winner in Zahrat Dubai.
The winning trainer Tom Mullins remarked: “She was mad in season a few days before her debut run and I thought she had gotten over it but she ran flat. She had won a barrier trial and I thought she'd win that race so we patched her up and came back here today.
"She's proven what she does at home, she beats everything at home and she is the best of my two year old fillies. It was no surprise she won and she won her barrier trial on good or good to firm, so she'll go on any ground.
"She is a big raw weak filly and will get 1m4f no problem next year. I believe she will be a black-type filly, she has a good pedigree and whether she gets black-type this year or next year I don't know. It depends on herself in the next few weeks."
