Jerandme made a winning start over fences with a gutsy performance at Kilbeggan this evening.

Noel Meade 's charge cut out the running in the beginners chase, run over just shy of two-and-a-half miles.

He answered every call from Sean Flanagan from the last to record a length-and-a-quarter success over Aforementioned

The Azamour gelding, sent off a 3/1 shot, was adding to two bumper wins, a win over hurdles and a win on the Flat.

“He's a very nice horse and he never runs a bad race whether it's Flat, hurdles or chases,” said Meade.

“Jeremy Harley felt that he might be better over fences than hurdles and he might be right.

“He had very little respect for hurdles. Since we've started schooling he's been very good and that one mistake he made today is the only mistake he's ever made.

“We brought him to Killarney but took him out because we thought the ground went too soft.

“He wants that nice ground. He'll continue on over fences and he does need a bit of a trip.”
