The Ger Lyons trained Georgeta struck at the second time of asking in the Golf At Gowran Park Maiden at Gowran Park.
Colin Keane kept it simple on the odds on favourite, tracking the leaders before quickening clear to go right away from her field.
The form of her debut run at Naas had been well franked by the race winner Tuesday who finished third in the 1000 Guineas over the weekend.
Georgeta now looks set to step up in class following her impressive success.
Shane Lyons said; “It's grand to get that out of the way, she was entitled to do that on her last run.
“We dropped her back to seven and she can go either seven or a mile, she has enough pace for seven and she stuck it out well on that ground.
“She's very genuine, we'll take her home and make a plan now.”
