Tiger Roll was downed late on by stablemate and same-owned Delta Work – with the winning horse being booed as it passed the post and as it passed the stands afterwards.
Tiger Roll heroically took it up after travelling well but Delta Work - a previous winner at Cheltenham and also owned by Ryanair supremo Michael O'Leary - battled past him on the run-in to head him late home.
These two were a long way clear of Plan Of Attack, who finished third.
