A highly impressive performance from Jered here as he quickened away from the last for an effortless victory.

Ruby Walsh set the pace on proven stayer Fiveforthree but the Cheltenham hero couldn't quicken when headed by Salford City before the second last.

Jered had moved through on the tail of that rival and it looked a question of how far turning into the straight.

Tony McCoy sent his mount to the lead running to the last and he soon settled matters, easing down close home.

Noel Meade believes missing Cheltenham "was a blessing in disguise" with the good ground performer.

The champion trainer hopes the son of Presenting will make up into a Champion Hurdle horse next year.

Salford City, another suited by good ground, ran a cracker but couldn't match a very talented rival.

He tracked Fiveforthree before taking it up going to the second last. His lead looked on sufferance, however, and he couldn't contain the finishing kick of the winner.

Fiveforthree came here in preference to the 2m4f contest on Friday and may just have found himself outpaced on this ground.

He was a winner over 2m5f when coming from the back to land the Ballymore Properties Hurdle at the Cheltenham festival.

The grey had no answer when headed before the second last and looked set to weaken out of it but he stayed on again down the straight.

Made In Taipan has stood plenty of racing and ran another sound race without looking a danger.

He had suffered steering problems when second to the winner at Fairyhouse last time and could never get close enough this time to land a blow, keeping on one paced from two out.

Quinmaster was making no inroads from before the straight while Migmatite was beaten before two from home.
