Harannda swooped wide and late to land the spoils in the Irish EBF Supporting Irish Champions Weekend Fillies Maiden at Roscommon.
Colin Keane held his mount up in the seven-furlong contest before switching her out to the centre of the track in the straight.
Despite hanging out to her left, and becoming a little unbalanced on a couple of occasions, the Invincible Spirit filly found plenty in the final furlong.
The Dermot Weld-trained filly was a cosy winner at the line after getting to the front in the closing stages.
11/2 shot Harannda, owned by the Aga Khan, had been placed on three occasions but disappointed on her most recent outing at Navan after racing keenly.
Keane said:- “She’s been running in sprinting company and Mr Weld stepped her up in trip today and said to ride her cold. It worked out well.
“She handled the good ground well. She’s a handy filly and turned well.
“She had a couple of good runs in defeat last year and was entitled to do that. Hopefully now that she’s got her head in front she might keep going the right way.”
