Energumene makes stylish return to winning ways in Cork
Energumene and Paul Townend win for trainer Willie Mullins with Banbridge and Richie Deegan parting company. Both ok afterwards.
A day after Jonbon strutted his stuff at Sandown, Energumene proved his considerable ability remains very much intact with a successful return from 20 months on the sidelines in the Bar One Racing Hilly Way Chase at Cork.
The Willie Mullins-trained 10-year-old claimed this Grade Two prize in both 2021 and 2022, kicking off campaigns which both featured victory in the Queen Mother Champion Chase at Cheltenham.
