Implicit clears the final flight© Photo Healy Racing
After a one-two in the previous race on the card, Willie Mullins repeated the feat with Implicit and Enola in Clonmel's mares' maiden hurdle.
The market got this race wrong, though, as Enola went off 4/6 favourite from her 4/1 rival.
The two market leaders looked to have the spoils between them racing to two out where Implicit got on terms with Enola.
Implicit soon took a narrow lead and asserted on the run-in to beat her rival by four lengths. Ah Fuhgeddaboudit (7/1 - 9/2) completed the placings some eight lengths further back.
Jockey Brian Hayes said: "I rode her in a piece of work on Tuesday and she worked very well. I don't know what happened to her at Limerick (pulled up over Christmas), she didn't run her race for some reason, but had a good run here when finishing third on her first run.
"I was mildly confident she might do something like that. If you took her Limerick run out of it, she was entitled to do that today, getting 8lb from Enola.
"Coming back to two miles was a big help as it allowed me to settle her as she can be keen. She is very forward and meets her hurdles on forward strides."
