Harrington Undecided On Studmaster Plan

Jessica Harrington has yet to decide whether to send Studmaster to Sandown for the Sunderlands Imperial Cup on March 11 or go straight to the Vincent O'Brien County Hurdle at the Cheltenham Festival six days later.

The six-year-old Pierse Hurdle winner enhanced his reputation with another eyecatching success in a two-mile contest at Leopardstown on Sunday.

'He's fine after yesterday's race but the handicapper hasn't been very nice to him as he has gone up 16lb,' said the County Kildare handler.

'It could be the Imperial Cup or the County Hurdle next ? depending on which one he gets in with the best weight.
