Nichols Canyon followed up his impressive win at Aintree in the Tattersalls Ireland Champion Novice Hurdle at Punchestown.
With Ruby Walsh on a high after Faugheen's stroll to victory in the Champion Hurdle earlier on the card, he adopted identical tactics, making every yard of the running on Willie Mullins' challenger.
The win was the horse's fourth at the highest level in a stellar campaign

Gleneagles gave Aidan O'Brien his seventh Qipco 2000 Guineas success as he ran out a convincing winner of the first Classic of the season at Newmarket.
Sent off the 4-1 favourite for the mile event, Ryan Moore's mount was very much in control heading into the dip and kept on to win by two and a quarter lengths.
