Kennnedy confident as Hill lands double Poormans Hill gave Jack Kennnedy and Gordon Elliott a double on the card at Down Royal today. The pair teamed up to take the feature event with Outlander and struck again with the 5/4 favourite in the Rainbow Communications Handicap Chase. The market leader travelled well to challenge three from home under a confident Kennedy. Lasoscar looked a big threat going to the second last and was ridden to take a narrow advantage over the last. Kennedy had kept a bit up his sleeve on Poormans Hill, however, and he found more on the run-in to record a cosy half length success. “He's a great old servant. That's four on the bounce he's after winning and probably doesn't owe anyone anything,” said Kennedy. “He's very versatile, over hurdles or fences. All he does his stay going and he's a little bit careful jumping as well so a trip gives him a bit of a chance. He has a little more time and that's suit him a bit better. “We got caught on the back foot in Downpatrick and it took him a while to pick up but when he did get into full flight he pulled clear. “A more galloping track definitely suits him better. Hopefully with a bit of luck he can get another few under his belt.”
