Having mastered Juddmonte's Red Letter last time, Barnavara (Calyx) was at it again on Wednesday with another Ger Lyons-trained daughter of Frankel held at bay in the G3 Al Shira'aa Racing Irish EBF Jannah Rose Stakes at Naas. This time, it was the unbeaten Faiyum who failed to get by Alpha Racing's improving filly having her first try at an extended 10 furlong trip.

Undeterred by that, Shane Foley set out to make all on the Jessica Harrington-trained Barnavara who was third in the G2 Debutante Stakes in August and had been in that same spot after the G3 Athasi Stakes prior to upstaging Red Letter in Navan's Listed Kooyonga Stakes.

At the line, the 11-4 second favourite had 1 1/4 lengths to spare over the 10-11 market-leader Faiyum, with a telling 5 1/2 lengths back to And So To Bed (Kodiac) in third.
