Big Zeb heads to Punchestown

Big Zeb, the only likely danger to Master Minded in the 2M Champion Chase at Cheltenham in March is set to contest the Grade 2 Amazing Thailand Chase at Punchestown this Sunday.

Trainer Colm Murphy said: "Big Zeb came out of his last race really well and has had a nice break since. Matt (O'Connor) schooled him over a few fences yesterday and we were very pleased so all going well we hope for a big run on Sunday".

There are a total of nine entries for the race in which Big Zeb will have to concede weight to all-bar Mansony.
