Arvika Ligeonniere got his campaign off to a flying start with a clear-cut success in the Clonmel Oil Chase at the County Tipperary course.
The Willie Mullins-trained eight-year-old took over from the pace-setting Rubi Light before the second-last fence and then saw off the challenge of Toner D'Oudairies.
Ruby Walsh pushed out Rich Ricci's second-season chaser, who was sent off the 4-5 favourite, on the run-in to pull away from the opposition. Texas Jack was third.
