Casey Jones produced a fine front-running performance to land the Star 'Best For Racing Coverage' Chase at Punchestown.

Noel Meade 's charge cut out the running along with One Cool Cookie and went on from that rival before the last.

He kept on well in the closing stages, under Paul Carberry, to record and length-and-a-half victory over Kilcrea Castle

It was a double for Meade and Carberry following the earlier victory of Donnas Palm

"He jumped brillliant and I suppose we'll go ahead with Plan A now and enter him for the Hennessy," said Meade.

"Hopefully Denman runs so we get in sitting on the bottom. It depends what way the weights work out but if he gets in with a reasonable racing weight we'd have to think about it.

"He doesn't like the ground too soft and he stays well. Some day he might be a National horse and he's a horse you could be thinking about Aintree with."
