Noel McParlan gave Razzle Dazzle Love a well judged front-running ride to spring a 33/1 shock in the concluding bumper at Galway.
The Tom Gibney-trained mare poached a healthy lead at the start and wasn't pressed in front.
She had her rivals at work before the straight in the two-miler and found plenty when asked for an effort on the run-in.
Well-backed odds-on shot Dads Lad (4/5) stayed on into second in the closing stages but the winner had flown to record a three-and-three-quarter length success.
Razzle Dazzle Love had actually been third over hurdles at Navan when last seen in March but was friendless in the market on her return having been a 8/1 shot this morning.
"She was a bit revved up when I got her last year and needed to settle down but she is a lovely mare. We sent her hurdling and it settled her down a bit,” said Gibney.
"It wasn't a surprise for us and the plan was to go from the front but they gave her a good start in fairness and handed it to her on a plate actually. We'll take what we get.
"Anything she does before she goes chasing is a bonus and she'll go for a maiden hurdle now."
