Electric Concorde made a winning debut over jumps in the John J Galvin Maiden Hurdle at Listowel.
Bryan Cooper was always prominent on the 10/11 favourite who had been as short as 4/7 in the morning.
Jim Culloty 's charge hit the front before the second last and responded well when tackled by Kaiser Black
The King's Theatre gelding stayed on well on the run-in as Tinos Tank ran on from the back to get within a length.
Electric Concorde had also won a bumper at the Galway festival for connections.
"It's great to have winners at Listowel and he also won at Galway so has done his job for the summer and I hope he has a bright future,” said Culloty.
"He had done plenty schooling and wants better ground."
