David Mullins kept it simple aboard odds-on-favourite Miss Eyecatcher by making all in the two and a half mile rated novice chase at Tipperary.
The King's Theatre has too much in her locker for her three rivals. Jack The Wire tried to challenge her after the third last but could never get on terms as Miss Eyecatcher asserted before the last and strode away by six and a half lengths.
She delivered at 4/6 from Jack The Wire at 7/2. It was another 20 lengths back to Coffee who couldn't land a blow.
David Mullins said: "She is a right good mare. I thought she wanted better ground when I first started riding her but she obviously goes on soft and heavy as well.
"She goes two miles, 2m4f and three miles won't be a problem when she gets her ground. She is a pleasure to ride and Roger has her in top form every day.
"Westerner Lady [Willie Mullins' mare] won six or seven mares' chases last year and she is another one of these mares. I'm hopeful that her game is jumping and is learning every day."
Roger McGrath 's Miss Eyecatcher followed up on an emphatic victory in a mares' novice chase at Listowel last month where she also made all.
