I'm All You Need got her career over fences off to the best possible start when justifying favouritism in the Courtown Mares Beginners Chase at Wexford.
Mikey Fogarty sent the daughter of King's Theatre to the front on touching down after three out, and the 5/2 market leader was well on top in the straight.
Paul Nolan 's charge came home a very comfortable six lengths clear of the always prominent Well Tuned with Give Her Bach another half-length away in third.
Fogarty said, "Jumping won it for her. Her run the last day was in a competitive handicap hurdle at Ballinrobe and that run was probably good enough to win this.
"She was good and brave at the second last, when she turned in she had a look at the stands but fair dues to her, she done it well."
