The unbeaten seven-year-old was ultra-impressive in his novice hurdle season, winning at the Cheltenham Festival on just his second start over timber.
He pulled five lengths clear of Minella Cocooner to score at Prestbury Park and confirmed that form when holding off the same rival to add a second Group One at the Punchestown Festival.
