Robert Tyner's Queen Jesse Jay landed a gamble in the concluding beginners' chase at Cork.
The lightly-raced six-year-old mare was having her fourth career start and had won one of her three previous hurdle races.
She outgunned Fakir D'alene before the last and went on by three and a half lengths at the winning post.
She was available at 25/1 in the morning and was returned at 4/1. Runner-up Fakir D'alene was a 13/2 shot and finished seven lengths clear of Mount Melleray (10/1).
Trainer Robert Tyner said: "it was a nice, even, competitive race and she had a nice run the last day. She jumped well and seems to have taken well to fences.
"She is fit but not as fit as she looks as she is a big, narrow, light-framed mare and we are always nursing her to keep the condition she has.
"She won a maiden hurdle on her second run in January and didn't run after that as the horses weren't right and we had to back off them."
