This developed into a great duel with Rosy Cyborg hanging on by the narrowest of margins.
The 4/6f moved through to take it up before the third last as long-time leader Skip The Dip weakened.
He was strongly pressed running to two out and wasn't helped by a mistake at the last.
Bring On Rocket was gaining all the way to the line and it took the judge to split them as the flashed past the post together.
The winner was headed close home at Thurles last time after attempting to make all. A repeat looked a distinct possibility but to be fair to him he stuck his head out.
Trainer Willie Mullins will try to find something for him at Punchestown, ideally over further.
The runner-up was showing significant improvement after finishing a moderate eighth on his hurdling debut at Limerick. He should land a maiden before long.
The front two pulled well clear of Global Position, who was ridden into second three out but started to cry enough on the turn for home.
By The Hour moved into contention at the third last but had no more to offer before the straight while the same can be said of Diophas.
