The Christina Jeffery-trained gelding, who had not saluted since a Port Fairy Cup victory in December of 2012, claimed the triumph for apprentice jockey Boris Thornton.
He beat Mick Cerchi's Henshaw and Dan O'Sullivan's top-weight Gottino to land the $15,000 feature.
Scaredymac is a nine-year-old, who has now won 10 races from 56 career starts.
Meanwhile, the run of success for Ballarat trainer Darren Weir continues with a winning double at Caulfield on Saturday.
Lucky Hussler will now progress to the group 1 Emirates Stakes, 1600m, after a dominant victory in the group 3 Moonga Stakes, 1400m, while Stratum Star was impressive in winning a listed 1400m earlier in the day.
In Adelaide, Weir's talented youngster Star Stealer remained unbeaten after his win in a three-year-old benchmark 70 event over 1050m.
