Gillian Callaghan's Run For Harry justified favouritism in the Download The New Tote App Opportunity Handicap Hurdle at Downpatrick.
The six-year-old gelding got off the mark at Kilbeggan last month which saw him go off 5/2 for this extended 2m1f contest.
He was always to the fore with Dollar Value and led by a length from that rival approaching the last.
Philip Byrnes sent him for home on the run-in and he responded generously to score by six and a-half lengths from gambled-on Dollar Value (4/1). Phoenix Cowboy (13/2) was another nine lengths back in third.
Byrnes said: "He found plenty, he kept galloping well to the line. He has a big stride and they couldn't peg him back.
"For a big horse he really cornered well around here and jumped brilliant. He was in top order coming here and we were very hopeful he would be there or thereabouts.
"Big thanks to Gillian and the owner for the opportunity. They will have a bit of fun with him and he will jump a fence as well. A fine horse."
