Irish Oaks fourth Elizabeth Jane (2/1 fav) returned to form to record a first stakes success in the Thomas's Of Foxrock 'Jim And Kathleen Murphy' Memorial Trigo Stakes.

Settled in mid-division by Chris Hayes, Moyglare Stud Farm's filly made headway on the outer in the straight and led inside the final furlong to beat Layfayette by a length-and-three-quarters.

Trainer Dermot Weld said of the daughter of Dubawi: "She deserved that win, she's a very talented filly. 

“That was only her fourth run of the year, she ran fourth in the Irish Oaks and ran a very good race.

“She had been working nicely and that was what I expected, a very good performance today. 

“Things didn't go right for her in the Blandford on the day but since then she's been working very well and I was reasonably confident she'd win today.” 

When asked if she would return next year, he added:- “Oh most definitely. I think a mile-and-a-half will prove to be her best trip. 

“I nearly didn't run her today to wait for the Finale Stakes over a mile-and-a-half but she had been working nicely so we rightly decided to come today. 

“You'll find that at Group level a mile-and-a-half will be no problem next year. We'll try and win a Group 1 with her next year over a mile-and-a-half.” 

Weld's other runner Spoken Truth finished in rear and he reflected: "I was satisfied with him, he's been a long time off. He came with a run but just got tired. He'll be a nice horse for next year as well. 

“There is one race at the Curragh (on the final day) that he might well appear in.”
