Nans View beats Cafe Con Leche © Photo Healy Racing
A winner over 1m2f at the Curragh the previous week, Nans View (11/2) had no problem staying the extra two furlongs of the Benetti Menswear Handicap as she followed up under Ronan Whelan.
Having tracked the leaders on the outer, Whelan committed the Phoenix Of Spain filly coming out of the dip and she stayed on well to beat Cafe Con Leche by a length-and-a-half.
Jarlath Fahey trains the winner for his daughter Sinead and said: "She led a seven furlong maiden up the Curragh until half-a-furlong down so we thought then that she was a mile filly, but we were up in distance recently and in fairness to Dylan Browne McMonagle, he had said to go this distance.
"She has a blend of both pace and stamina and handles deep ground very very well. She is very tough for a three-year-old and hurdling is now a major option.
"Unfortunately Sinead couldn't be here today as she is on holidays."
