Getaway Queen supplemented Wexford hurdling gains from nine days back when taking the Hollywoodbets Proud Sponsors Of Dundalk Stadium Handicap.
Joey Sheridan did the steering in the mile and a half contest and his mount took her course and distance score to three wins.
She now has five career wins on the board all told, after accounting for Port Lockroy and Indignation by half a length and a short head.
Winning trainer Ken Budds said: “She's in great form. She won in Wexford the other night and this was kind of the plan.
“Last year we hadn't enough points for this race and she was ready for it. We didn't think we'd get into this year and it was only after we entered we thought we had a great chance of getting in.
“We fancied her because she came on from the hurdles the other day.
“She is what she is but she loves it up around here and never runs a bad race. We're delighted, if I didn't have her sure I'd get nowhere.
“I'll have a look and she'll probably come back here before we go over hurdles again.”
D. McMonagle, rider of High Street Lady trained by E.Sheehy, reported to the Clerk of Scales that his mount pulled up, having lost all action.
