Paul Carberry gave Hareth an ultra-confident ride as he just held on to win the Join The Tote Go Racing Club Handicap Hurdle.
The Charlie Swan trained four-year-old was settled right out the back by Carberry, and he slowly made ground through the field as they entered the straight for the final time.
He hit the front just after the last, and while Go Paddy Go threw down a strong challenge, the line came just in time for the victorious son of Jeremy as he prevailed by a short head.
Go Paddy Go, who went off the 11/4 favourite (5/1 last night and from 7/2 on-course), had to settle for second under Martin Burke for James Grace, while Wontbelongnow was just a length and a quarter back in third at 14/1 under Brian O’Connell for John Joe Walsh.
Charlie Swan said afterwards: "I had the best jockey. He was unreal. They must have went a million miles an hour, and a lot of people would have panicked.
"He is not a great or a natural jumper and he has to fine his feet, and I have to thank the jockey for that one.
"We will look for something similar next but he is versatile and he could run on the flat."
