Scorchio made the most of her light weight when running out a game winner of the five-furlong nursery at Dundalk.

Jack Davison 's charge had been available at 12/1 this morning but went off a 6/1 shot on her second handicap outing.

Wesley Joyce tracked the leaders on the Kuroshio filly before asking her to challenge a furlong-and-a-half from home.

Scorchio grabbed a narrow lead inside the final furlong and stuck on well to score by half a length from Moral Turpitude

Davison said: "Myself and my father leased her to a syndicate.

"She is obviously well-related and I have her little full-brother as well.

"I was kind of hoping she would do that off the back of her first run in Listowel, but I would say it was probably all just a little too quick, too fast for her. She needed a bit of time at the back of it all to mature mentally and physically.

"That was the first thing Wesley said - they went a million miles per hour - and he took back and he just let them go. To be fair, he is obviously a very talented rider but he has got a brain as well. We saw the fruits of his work there this evening.

"I would suspect so (be busy in Dundalk), she seemed to handle the surface well and the lads are knocking a bit of fun out of her now that she has won. Hopefully we will have a bit of craic with her this side of Christmas.

"Hopefully she can go on from this."
