Thatwilldoso s seasonal reappearance couldn't have gone any better as she forged home by three and a-half lengths in the four-year-olds plus handicap at Gowran Park.

She threw down a strong challenge to Dazzling Spirit racing into the final couple of furlongs and overwhelmed that rival a furlong and a-half down.

Nothing came out of the pack to trouble her and she swept home for a comfortable success at 11/2 under Jack Kearney from 4/1 joint favourite Tatum who made late gains for second. Dazzling Spirit rounded out the places in third at 11/2.

Kevin Coleman said: “She was ready to start off today and the ground was drying out which we didn’t know. Jack’s claim helped, but it was a weak race.

“She is a grand filly going forward and can go up in trip as well and I might get the jump licence out to give her a spin over hurdles because she’s that type.

“The syndicate (ThatWillDoSo Syndicate) are from Clare and I got her through Sean Grassick who recommended her.”
