Eight Till Late brought up his 10th career victory when powering home in the extended two mile handicap chase.
Francis Casey 's 10-year-old got to grips with 6/4 favourite Thecraicisninety after the second-last and comfortably took the spoils by three and three quarter lengths at 8/1.
Jockey Conor Orr said: "From start to finish he just jumped brilliantly. Over the last few it was definitely the winning of the race.
"He's not a young horse but he's getting better and is a very consistent horse. Jumping over fences is definitely improving him.
"He can get quite keen so I just didn't want him to do too much too early.
"He got lazy sort of early and came off the bridle far enough out but in the end he has won going away."
