Easy for All The Answers on handicap debut All The Answers ran out an easy winner of the Matchbook Betting Exchange Handicap Chase, scoring under Shane Shortall for Joseph O'Brien. Twice successful over flights in 2016, the son of Kayf Tara was second on his chasing debut at Killarney in July of last year, but disappointed on his four starts since. Making his debut in handicap company this afternoon, the bay victor opened on-course at 16/1, before going off a 12/1 chance in the colours of owner JP McManus. Settled in mid-division on the inner, he came with his effort from three out, and eased to the front before the last, keeping on well from there to score by five lengths. Tisamystery (20/1) finished second under Daniel Holden for Henry de Bromhead, while the well-backed favourite Blast Of Koeman (5s to 11/4 on-course) was a neck back in third. Damian Byrne, representing Joseph O'Brien, said: "Shane was very happy with him and we'll go for something similar after that. "He jumped really well for his first handicap and will obviously come on for it." STEWARDS REPORT The Irish Horseracing Regulatory Board Veterinary Officer examined Jaunty Thor (GB), trained by Gordon Elliott, at the request of the Stewards and reported the animal to be post race normal.
