Bainne wore down Katiymann in the closing stages to grab the spoils in the Stephen Quirke Memorial Handicap at the Curragh.
Oisin Orr got a good tune from the 12/1 shot inside the final furlong to get to the front close home and record a three-parts-of-a-length win.
The winner was making her second start for trainer Johnny Levins having been claimed out of a claimer at Gowran Park in late August.
“To be honest I thought she might need the run stepping back up to a mile having been dropped back to five last time,” said Levins.
“Ana (O'Brien) rode her last time and told me to put her back up in trip. I'd imagine running over the five really sharpened her up.
“She got a beautiful ride today and he waited with her and switched her off.
“Donagh (O'Connor) put him forward for the ride. I spoke to his agent then and he was very complimentary about him. He rode once before for me and we were happy to use him.”
