Fairyhouse, Sunday

Powers Gold Cup Chase (Grade 1) 2m 4f, 5yo+

Quote:
FLEMENSTAR posted a fifth successive win over fences as the novice slammed his more experienced rivals with a sensational effort in the Fairyhouse feature.

The Peter Casey-trained seven-year-old was sent off the 11-10 favourite on his first start in open company but his supporters had no worries whatsoeveras he cruised home 11 lengths clear of his nearest rival Rathlin.

Such was the manner of his win, a fifth in six starts over fences, that he is now as short as 8-1 second-favourite with Ladbrokes for next year's Betfred Cheltenham Gold Cup.
A very impressive performance.
