Twoohthree (7/1) made a taking track debut for Gordon Elliott in the Colours Bar Maiden Hurdle at Leopardstown.
The Jet Away gelding scrambled home by a neck in a Lingstown point-to-point in November for Sean Doyle, but graduated to the track in fine style.
He was on the heels of Postileo and Rath Gaul Boy two out and readily assumed the lead entering the straight.
The five-year-old coasted clear, in attritional conditions, before the last which he jumped big and bold under Jordan Gainford.
He cruised home by a mammoth 27 lengths from stablemate Gold In The Rivers (12/1).
Elliott said: “He's only a baby, there is loads of improvement.
"We thought he was only ready for a run, but he ran really well.
“He'll stay very well.”
