Touch The Sound (9/2) was resolute off the front in the Dundalk Stadium Gift Vouchers Available Online Fillies Maiden over a mile.
Joey Sheridan raced her prominently and she took it up after a furlong and a-half.
She was there to be shot at inside the final furlong, but kept finding to see off Whisper A Prayer (7/1) by a length. Quatrain (11/2) was a nose further back in third.
Sheridan said: "She had a good run on her second run in Leopardstown (runner-up) and, just for whatever reason after that, we were a little bit disappointed with her last two runs.
"Her run up here the last day, we walked around that night. The first thing I said to Fozzy (Stack, trainer) was that I would make plenty of use of her the next day and that I thought she would win.
"I felt like I went good, even fractions and she stayed going to the line.
"I said to Fozzy, even before the race, that if someone else wants to go harder than me, grand, but I said I would make it a test tonight.
"She lengthened the whole way to the line and took a bit of pulling up. A grand filly."
