Tranquil Sea was driven out by Andrew McNamara to win the John Durkan Memorial Punchestown Chase.
Edward O'Grady's charge showed a smart turn of foot to go clear of his rivals between the last two but began to tire on the flat.
This allowed J'Y Vole to close him down but Edward O'Grady's charge had enough in hand.
Roberto Goldback ran on strongly to take third with favourite Cooldine dropping away after making the running to two out.
Ryanair plan
O'Grady said: "I'm delighted and he might go straight for the Ryanair now. "He hasn't many options between now and then and Christmas is very close now anyway, where he would have to run over either two or three miles."This was always his pre-Christmas target and I'm delighted that he has achieved it. I'm pleased too that he has reversed Ryanair form with J'y Vole.
"Last season he ran too close to Cheltenham and we'll try to make a better job of it this time.
"He has options after Cheltenham too. It was unfortunate for a horse like him that they had to miss out on three fences in this race but he's overcome that."
