Done many times in my 5" refractor.
The clearest split was in conditions many would not even want to observe in. A gibbous moon with a light high cloud cover. The split was so clear and the components very distinct.

I suggest with your 10" to observe at twilight. Anatres is higher at twilight right now, and the primary will not be so bright - the 10" can make it too bright!
