'He's riding out of his skin' - Jack Kennedy and Gordon Elliott continue their unstoppable run of form with a treble

Gordon Elliott and Jack Kennedy continued their wonderful run of results as the duo notched a treble beginning in the opening race with Jacob's Ladder.

A Grade 3 novice hurdle winner at Naas in February, the six-year-old got off the mark over fences at the third attempt in the 2m beginners' chase at odds of 100-30 in straightforward fashion. 

The Cullentra duo powered on to the 2m5f rated novice chase, where the 6-4 favourite The Enabler pulverised his opposition with an impressive 15-length victory.

Their final success on the card was not as clearcut as Kennedy lifted home Bally Free in the 3m maiden hurdle to win by a head at 100-30. The Willie Mullins-trained 4-5 favourite Porthill was a disappointing fourth.

"Jack's riding out of his skin," Elliott told Racing TV. "I was a bit worried about two miles with Jacob's Ladder, but I'd say the softer ground played into his favour.

"The Enabler jumped great. He started off well over hurdles last year and tapered off. He might be more of a handicapper than a Graded horse."

Double for Meade

Noel Meade got in on the action and denied the Elliott a four-timer in the process as he fired in a double of favourites. 

The 7-4 chance Ben Hur saw off the Kennedy/Elliott representative Wackestone by two lengths when winning the 2m juvenile maiden hurdle under Donagh Meyler, before the Mark Walsh-ridden Fierce Handay readily won at 11-10 in the following 2m novice handicap hurdle.
