Shane Crimin gave Black Zero a fine ride as the pair made all in the TJ Reid & Ashgrove Stables Handicap Hurdle at Gowran.
Michael McDonagh's charge was sent off at 14-1 for the richest race on the card and was soon out in front under the 7lb claimer.< Railway Tommy and Vicangelome asked questions on the home straight but the winner answered them all and crossed the line a length ahead of the latter.
There was a huge shock in the Joey Holden & Kilkenny City And County Vintners Maiden Hurdle as 100-1 chance Capture The Drama fought off all challengers to score.
Owned and trained by Aengus King, the eight-year-old was sent straight into the lead and showed no signs of relenting as more fancied rivals put pressure on him off the home turn.
Andrew Ring's mount dug dig to repel Paper Lantern and record a three-and-a-half-length success.< One Can Cally (12-1) upset the well-backed Dubai Devils in the opening ML Fennelly & Affidea Maiden Hurdle.
The 8-11 favourite held the advantage going into the last but a mistake let in Liz Doyle's mare, who needed no second invitation as she pulled two and a half lengths clear.< Lift The Latch (4-5) landed a blow for favourite-backers in the Cillian Buckley & Whitfield Clinic Rated Novice Hurdle.
Tony Martin's charge built on a facile National Hunt debut success with another comfortable victory, making all with six lengths to spare over Oiche Mhaith Boy < Whisper Rock (5-4fav) returned from 678 days off the track to make a winning debut for Aidan O'Brien in the Richie Hogan & Iverk Produce Mares Beginners Chase.
The former Philip Fenton inmate joined the front-running Rakaia Rosa at the second-last and stayed on best to make a successful chasing bow by six lengths.< Whatareudoingtome (11-1) capitalised on a fall by leader Garrai Phaidin at the penultimate fence to take the Paul Murphy & First Auto Finance Handicap Chase by seven and half lengths from Mtada Supreme while Grotesue (8-13fav) landed the odds by a length and three-quarters from Blast Of Koeman in the Ger Aylward
