Don Cossack made it three wins from three this season with an impressive triumph in the John Durkan Memorial Chase at Punchestown.
The seven-year-old Gigginstown star followed up last year's Drinmore Novices' victory by outlasting favourite Boston Bob and Cheltenham Gold Cup winner Lord Windermere to win the Grade One chase by four and a half lengths. Trainer Gordon Elliott said: 'They all came to beat him, but he picked up and galloped to the line. If I had my way he wouldn't run until Cheltenham and go straight for the Ryanair. 'He's always had plenty of stick and people have said he's been disappointing, but he's a dual Grade One winner now.'Explore more on these topics:
