The two fillies in the line-up, Croughavouke and Pixel Power filled the first two positions in the Free Racecourse WiFi At Limerick Median Auction Maiden (Plus 10 Race).
Owned and bred by Joe Fogarty and trained by his son Aidan, debutant third placer Croughavouke came on from that Navan effort 29 days back, with Wayne Lordan up.
She was backed to do so, from 8/1 into 6/1, and never far away the daughter of Dandy Man led over a furlong out, before holding the staying on newcomer Pixel Power by three parts of a length.
"She ran well in Navan the last day and we thought she'd improved a good bit and it worked out well and she stayed well," said Aidan Fogarty, who also sent out Bellewstown Friday victor Enough Said.
"She is a nice filly, we thought a bit of her coming here and we'll look for a bit of black-type with her now; she might go to England for black-type."
The Stewards ordered the withdrawal of Bigz Belief trained by Matthew J. Smith, for failing to lodge the passport in accordance with the provisions of Rule 90 (i).
