The Willie Mullins-trained Jarry D'Honneur justified his short price when running out a comfortable winner of the novice chase at Navan this afternoon.

Ruby Walsh let the 3/10 shot jump into the lead down the back straight and he always looked in control in the closing stages.

Toubaloo gave chase from the second last but could only get within five-lengths of the JP McManus-owned gelding.

The winner, impressive at Punchestown in January, had been well held when unseating at the last in Grade One company at Leopardstown last month.

"He settled nicely and he was a bit tidier in his jumping," said Mullins afterwards.

"The Ryanair at Fairyhouse will probably come a bit soon and we may look at Punchestown, although if there is something in between where he didn't have to take on the top novices we'd look at that."
