Gaelic Warrior landed the first Grade One of his career in the Irish Mirror Novice Hurdle at Punchestown - and it looks unlikely to be his last.
Stepped up to three miles for the first time, the Willie Mullins-trained five-year-old proved in a different league to his rivals, strolling to a 10-length victory under Paul Townend as the 4-5 favourite.
