So You Think got back to winning ways with an easy defence of his Tattersalls Gold Cup crown at the Curragh.
The gargantuan Australian import turned the coveted Group One into a procession under trainer Aidan O'Brien's son, Joseph.
So You Think will not be seen again in competitive action in Ireland as he is due to take up studies in Australia later in the year.
He will, however, still be aimed at Royal Ascot next month before heading to Sandown to defend his crown in the Coral-Eclipse in July.
O'Brien snr said: "He has an unbelievable presence.
"We're probably only really getting to know him and doing the right thing with him.
"This is the last time you'll see him in this country.
"Training him has been an unbelievable experience.
"We'll look at Royal Ascot (Queen Anne Stakes or the Prince of Wales's Stakes).
"Then he'll go for the Eclipse (Sandown) as that's the only race that fits into his programme before he goes into quarantine (for stud duties in Australia)."
So You Think registered his first Group One victory in Europe in this race 12 months ago.
While he went on to land the Eclipse, he returned to Ireland this weekend having suffered four consecutive defeats.
Although a slightly disappointing fourth in the Dubai World Cup on his first start of 2012, Ballydoyle's six-year-old was the 2-11 favourite for this lesser event and the result was never in any doubt.
Joseph O'Brien eased his mount alongside pacemaker Robin Hood rounding the home turn and soon stamped his authority on the race.
Famous Name was predictably the horse to give chase, but his long wait for a Group One will have to go on as he was not in the same league as So You Think, who eased home by six lengths.
O'Brien snr said: "He had a good break since Dubai and Joseph was very happy with him.
"He's an amazing horse - he's very unusual in that his mane and his tail grow twice as quick as any other horse which means he has a wild look about him."
Speaking Of Which earlier annihilated his rivals in the Group Three Airlie Stud Gallinule Stakes.
The Cork maiden winner, fitted with first-time blinkers, ran keenly in the early stages, but was still travelling better than anything once they straightened for home.
Dermot Weld's 7-1 chance shot to the lead once the gap came, and continued to extend his advantage under Pat Smullen.
The official margin of victory was nine lengths, with the O'Brien-trained pair of Soon and Athens second and third respectively.
Crius, Richard Hannon's 13-8 favourite, pulled far too hard and predictably weakened.
Weld said: "He did it very well. He's a big, immature horse - he's only run twice previously - and the further he goes the better he'll be.
"He's a big, impressive colt and there's a lot to look forward to.
"He could be a horse for a mile and a half, but we'll review it."
Smullen said: "Looking at that, he'd get another two furlongs, so maybe the Irish Derby would come into consideration."
The O'Brien family got the day off to a perfect start when Lines Of Battle made a victorious racecourse debut in the Big Bad Bob EBF Maiden.
With Joseph doing the steering, the American-bred colt was a 5-1 chance for the six-furlong contest, with Jim Bolger's course runner-up Leitir Mor the 9-4 favourite.
The pair stretched away from the rest of the field heading inside the final furlong and while Leitir Mor tenaciously stuck to his task against the rail, Lines Of Battle won by a head.
O'Brien snr said: "He was ready to come racing and you'd have to be very happy with him.
"You'd expect him to come forward for the run."
Midnight Soprano (14-1) got up in the very last stride to secure his fourth consecutive victory in the Paddy Power Handicap.
Trainer Paul Deegan said: "We wanted a shot at a big pot and hopefully we can go and find some black type for her now."
