Casey has no stamina worries about Flemenstar
A winner of five of his six starts over fences as a novice, the seven-year-old made a superb return to action over just two miles in the Fortria Chase at Navan last month and was back up to two and a half miles for the John Durkan Memorial Chase at Punchestown.
Flemenstar appeared to face his toughest task to date in tackling the previously unbeaten chaser Sir Des Champs, but he produced a foot-perfect round of jumping under Andrew Lynch to beat his fellow Cheltenham Gold Cup hope with plenty to spare.
