On his fourth start for James Lambe, I Hear A Symphony defied top-weight under a vintage Ruby Walsh drive in the Race Signage At Sligo In 2011 Handicap Hurdle.
Walsh got the eight-year-old son of Accordion up along the inside of a trio battling it out on the run-in and he ended up prevailing by a short head from Ella Watson
I Hear A Symphony was bought by Lambe at Doncaster in May for £19,000 out of the Charlie Longsdon yard. He had been bought at the same sale three years previous for 260,000 guineas after winning a bumper at Limerick for Mag Mullins.
Lambe reported: "He's been a bit disappointing but really it was the man on his back who made the difference between winning and losing today. He has always had the ability but he has his own ideas about it. He'd be better suited by good ground and a longer trip."
Winning owner Tony Cromwell from Drogheda missed the win as he was picking up a friend from the airport.
