James Wilson knocked out Adrian Lewis to reach the quarter-finals of the Unibet World Grand Prix for the first time as Peter Wright, Mensur Suljovic and Gerwyn Price also enjoyed Wednesday wins in Dublin.
Wilson defeated last year's runner-up Simon Whitlock in round one of the double-start event and backed it up with a 3-2 win over two-time World Champion Lewis at the Citywest Convention Centre.
The Yorkshireman continued his recent fine form, twice taking the lead in sets only for runner-up Lewis to battle back and take the match to a decider.

Wilson pinned crucial doubles to go within a leg of victory and, with Lewis taking six darts to double-in, cruised to victory in the final leg to set up a last eight showdown with Wright.
"I can't believe it, I feel like I'm dreaming and anything is possible," said Wilson, who took out 150 and a showpiece 125 during the contest.
Wright dropped just two legs in his 3-0 whitewash of Jermaine Wattimena to equal his best tournament performance and continue his quest to win the €113,000 top prize.
Despite not being at his best, Wright's scoring proved too much for Dutch debutant Wattimena as the world number two cruised through to the last eight for a second consecutive year.
However, the Scot feels he is going under the radar in this year's event and is keen to make his mark in Thursday's quarter-finals,
A sublime display of finishing proved the difference for two-time semi-finalist Mensur Suljovic in his 3-0 destruction of Ian White.
World number six Suljovic landed four ton-plus checkouts and three bullseye finishes to knock White out of the Dublin event for a second successive year.
Suljovic reached the semi-finals last year and the Austrian fans' favourite is feeling confident about his chances of going two better this time out.
Welsh star Price reached the quarter-finals of the tournament for the first time with a 3-1 win over Steve Beaton.
The world number 12 punished Beaton's missed darts at finishing double throughout, and pinned a crucial double 11 with his last dart in hand to go two sets ahead after his rival wasted his chance to level.
Two-time semi-finalist Beaton, who was starring in his 15th World Grand Prix, pulled a set back before Price came back strongly in the fourth and found his favourite double top to finish the job.
The Unibet World Grand Prix continues on Thursday with the four quarter-final ties.
