All The Answers was certainly well named as he found most to pass the test set in the two mile one bumper in Ballinrobe.
He was strong in the market during the day shortening from 9/4 to 11/8 as the Willie Mullins newcomer Where's Me took a walk from 13/8 to 11/4.
The early pace was set by Cockle with All The Answers tracking her in second. Where's Me picked up the lead into the back straight from Eyes Of A Tiger and All The Answers as Cockle rapidly weakened out of contention.
With half a mile to negotiate, All The Answers moved into a close second off Where's Me. The latter came under pressure two and a half furlongs from home as Eyes Of A Tiger and All The Answers raced to the fore from Se Mo Laoch
It was inside the final furlong that 13/8 favourite All The Answers and Sarah O'Brien started to get on top and the duo maintained the gallop to score by a length from John Monash (9/2). The runner-up stayed on to be a neck in front of Eyes Of A Tiger in third.
Winning trainer Aidan O'Brien said: ""He ran a nice race at Galway the other day and we're delighted with that.
"We weren't sure about the ground but he won nicely and will go for a winners' bumper, possibly at Listowel next."
This improved Sarah O'Brien's record in bumpers this season to 11 from 21.
All The Answers had run once before when fifth in a novice hurdle at Galway won by the smart Bachasson.
