Ektihaam recorded an impressive success in the Listed Buckhounds Stakes at Ascot.
Paul Hanagan kicked clear before the home bend on the 11-4 chance, and much as eventual runner-up Thomas Chippendale attempted to make up ground in the home straight the former went on to win by six lengths.
Winning trainer Roger Varian said: "I was thrilled with his comeback run at Sandown when he was unlucky not to get second and he has thrived since."
He added: "Providing he got the mile and a half trip today I thought he'd run a big race and I told Paul to get him into a rhythm. He's versatile regards ground and gets a mile and a half.
