Best Of Dubai leads home her rivals under Jamie Codd© Photo Healy Racing
Best Of Dubai got a deserved win to her name, as she took the last at Galway, the Weatherbys General Stud Book EBF Mares INH Flat Race.
Placed on six of her previous seven starts, the daughter of Dubai Destination was last seen finishing third to Run For Mary at Down Royal.
Sent off 13/8 second favourite this evening, the Gordon Elliott trained six-year-old was settled behind the leaders by Jamie Codd, and was third with a circuit to race.
She improved into a share of the lead from four furlongs out, and hit the front as they approached the straight, keeping on best from there to score by a length and a quarter.
Point-to-point winner Wait For No One (4/1) ran on well to take second under Derek O'Connor for David Fenton, while the 6/4 favourite Pont Aval was another three parts of a length back in third.
Codd said afterwards: "She had the experience and had been knocking on the door in every bumper she has ran in. For her to win a bumper is a bonus and she'll go over jumps now and is a little dinger over jumps.
"She is tough and hardy and can step up in trip. It's really good for the syndicate (Lucky Shoe Part Three Syndicate) to get a win."
