Un Temps Pour Tout put up a determined performance to land the Ultima Handicap Chase at Cheltenham.
The David Pipe-trained seven-year-old got the better of Holywell the winner of this race in 2014, after a good battle from three out.
There was little between them turning for home with two to jump, but Un Temps Pour Tout (11-1) pulled away up the hill under Tom Scudamore to win by seven lengths. The Young Master was nine lengths back in third, with Morning Assembly fourth.
Scudamore said: "We had a dilemma at the beginning of the week which race to go for - we chose the right one.
"This hasn't been a season to remember by our standards, but the last few weeks we've managed to get it back on track.
"He's a French Champion Hurdle winner, he's got plenty of class.
"He put the race to bed pretty quickly."
