MARCO BOTTI recorded his first win of 2010 with Tiradito on target at Lingfield on January 2.
The Tale of the Cat colt secured an initial career success on what was his fifth start - and he did so in convincing fashion.
Placed twice before his latest race, Tiradito had little trouble in justifying favouritism.
Jockey Martin Dwyer held him up through much of the 7f maiden before progressing to settle the issue.
Tiradito took over approaching the furlong marker and stayed on strongly to score by three lengths.
The even money winner was Botti's third from his last four runners over the past fortnight.
