Aidan O'Brien's Kingsbarns earned quotes for next year's Investec Derby after landing the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Maiden at Navan.
Having settled nicely for Joseph O'Brien, he moved up stylishly before hitting the front two furlongs out and draw clear to win by seven lengths.
"He travelled very well but he didn't have a clue what to do when he hit the front," said the winning rider.
"He didn't even know how to canter back after the race and I had to trot him back. I think he is high class but I don't know if he'll run again this year."
Sky Bet introduced the winner to their market for the Epsom Classic at 20-1.
