Kadra kept on stoutly in the seven filles' handicap to give Pat Smullen and Michael Halford a double on the card.
The three-year-old filly led home a one-two-three for trainer Halford.
She overtook stable-mate Suvenna coming to the furlong marker and closed out the race from the fast-finishing Indrahar
The winner's SP was 5/1 and she beat the 3/1 favourite by a length and three parts. Suvenna (7/1) was a length and a quarter off the runner-up.
Michael Halford said: "They are three nice fillies and it's a shame they were all clashing but the prize-money was good. They are all suited by the surface and the distance, and the horses are in good form.
"Kadra needs pace and it was a bit too soft for her at Roscommon the last time. She could come back here for the (Listed) Cooley Stakes (October 28)."
Halford took the preceding race with Ambassadorial while Smullen bagged the opener on Tilly Trotter
