Robert Tyner made the long journey up from Cork worthwhile after his charge Footy Facts landed the Kathleen Clarke 80th Birthday Hurdle in the hands of Philip Enright.
Philip Enright sent the son of Oscar to the front approaching two out and the pair kept on well to post a thirtheen length win over Hardy Eustace
A delighted Tyner said afterwards: "That worked well. We thought Hardy Eustace was going to make it and we were going to take him on about three out but we a grand lead in the end."
"He picked really well and Philip said that's the best he's felt in a long time. Himself and Spring The Que have really come into their own recently."
"This was just a stepping stone our aim is for the Thyestes Chase in Gowran Park at the end of January."
