Yard pet Artiste Bay gained his second win around Kilbeggan when landing the Sean Hughes Memorial Handicap Chase under Eddie O'Connell.
The blinkered nine-year-old came through strongly on the run-in to get up and deny Pistol Jack by three lengths.
Winning trainer Eoin Griffin said of his wife Martina's French-bred: "That's been a long time coming. He's a small horse and a favourite in the yard – he runs his heart out every day.
"He struggles a bit with big weights and we'll see where we'll go next – he wants three miles plus anyway."
