16/1 shot Patsy Veale crowned a memorable afternoon for owner Michael Ryan when capturing the featured Murphy's Irish Stout Handicap Hurdle at Killarney.
Shay Barry brought the seven year-old through to challenge Cailin's Perk at the final flight before getting on top in the closing stages to score by 3/4 length.
'She deserved a good 'pot' like that after running well in the County Hurdle at Cheltenham,' said trainer John Queally, who will now aim his charge at the Galway Hurdle.
Ryan was seeing his colours carried to victory for the second time during the afternoon following the earlier success of Dalian Dawn in the Killarney Towers Hotel Novice Hurdle.
Paul Carberry, who looks assured of the jump jockeys' championship, rode a 35/1 double aboard Horner Rocks and Royal Jake, who landed the Tote - The Easy Way To Bet Chase in effortless fashion.
The latter's trainer Noel Meade went on to notch a second winner himself when Kinshasa was awarded the bumper in the stewards room.
