Lily's Rainbow landed a gamble in the last at Naas, the Follow Us On Facebook Handicap, as she got up close home to score under Wayne Lordan for Denise 'Sneezy' Foster.
Available at 10/1 last night the daughter of Intikhab was well-backed throughout the day and went off a 4/1 chance.
In rear early on she took closer order approaching the straight and came with her challenge on the wide outside with over two furlongs to race.
She was driven to the front 100 yards out and kept on well close home to score by half a length. Whip Up A Frenzy (20/1), who was prominent throughout, had to settle for second under Conor Hoban for Andrew Oliver while the 9/4 favourite Sacrificial was a further half a length back in third under Colin Keane for Ger Lyons.
Foster said afterwards: "She's so tough and so small. She's hardy and tough. She doesn't mind any ground.
"Wayne knows her now. She's slow to get into her races but finishes really well. She's my one and only flat horse."
