Everything falls nicely into place for Jack High

JACK HIGH, confidently handled by Garrett Cotter, proved a convincing winner of the €85,000 Stanleybet Troytown Handicap Chase at Navan yesterday.

The Ted Walsh-trained nine-year-old made stealthy headway from mid-division in the last mile before jumping into the lead at the fourth last fence. And, from that point, he galloped on relentlessly, never looking in danger, to slam Jaquouille and Golden Storm.

Walsh, who previously won the ‘Troytown’ with Roc De Prince, said: “He had a handy weight and everything fell into place for him. He has never jumped as well. Garrett gave him a great ride.”
