The feature race at Roscommon this evening the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Fillies Handicap went to the Adrian McGuinness trained, Johnny Murtagh ridden Ultra Cool who was returned at 7/1.
The 4yo, daughter of One Cool Cat was having her first run over a mile and two today and relished the step up in trip.
She settled in mid-division early on, before making good headway to lead a furlong out. She asserted from there and kept on well to score by four lengths at the line.
Before today she had two wins to her name, having won a handicap over the course at this meeting last year and another handicap at the Curragh in October. Glamorous who was backed from 4/1 this morning into 7/4 favourite on track couldn't match the winner but kept going to take second with Dart Queen for Arthur Moore a half a length back in third at 7/1.
Winning trainer Adrian McGuinness said afterwards: "That's the first time we stepped her up in trip. She was always finishing her races well and she got the trip well.
"She ran a cracker at Galway and deserved that win.
"She hasn't run a bad race all year and she is in again during the week (Tipperary on Thursday) and if she comes out of this ok, she could run again."
