Newcomer Gordon's Jet gave Gordon Elliott a 356/1 Punchestown double when scoring on debut in the concluding bumper.
Lisa O'Neill sent him on a furlong and a half down and her mount drew five lengths clear at the winning post.
He led home a one-two for Elliott as Sam's Choice (17/2) and Jamie Codd took second. The 11/8 favourite Wearapinkribbon with Patrick Mullins in the plate, was two and a quarter lengths back in third.
"I'd say the winner is a nice horse. He has nothing done and is very raw,” said Gordon Elliott.
“We think the second horse is nice too. We have a few nice horses to run.
“It's nice for Lisa to get a winner as well, she's a big part of the team and with Gigginstown not having as many bumper horses things got a bit slower for her. It just goes to show when she has the right horse she's as good as anyone.”
Elliott bookended the card as he took the opener with 16/1 chance Duffle Coat
