Arkwrisht powered clear in the closing stages to open his account over fences in the beginners chase at Kilbeggan.

Joseph O'Brien 's charge was well backed (11/2 into 3/1) having finished runner-up to A Rated at the venue on his last start.

JJ Slevin drove his mount into the lead after the second last and he was in command going to the final fence.

The Lavirco gelding didn't get high at the last but it didn't stop his momentum as he went on to record an 11-length success over Sizing Network.

“He had a good run here the last day. I'm very fortunate to get the ride, it's great that Joseph put me up on him and it's great to get the opportunity from Mr O'Leary and the Gigginstown team,” said Slevin.

“He's a big old horse and I didn't want to break his rhythm down to the last and wanted to keep going forward.

“He galloped out through it and galloped away from it like it wasn't there. That's just him and it's great he stayed on his feet anyway.

“He'll get further as he won a two-mile-six Grade 3 in Clonmel. He's not a bad horse.”
