Heures Lined Up For Triumph Test

Follow on Discover

Published at

Classy Fairyhouse scorer Quatre Heures is likely to go straight to the Cheltenham Festival without another prep run.

Willie Mullins? unexposed four-year-old was a comfortable one-and-a-half-length winner of the two-mile Group Hospitality At Fairyhouse Hurdle on Saturday.

And after enhancing his reputation following his 12-length success at Naas in January, the gelding is now set to be put away in preparation for the JCB Triumph Hurdle at Cheltenham, for which he is a general 16-1 chance.

Mullins said: 'He was quite settled the other day and confirmed what he had shown us in Naas.

'I don?t think he?ll be running again (before Cheltenham).

'He might need to for experience purposes, but he?s quite straight and quite fit at the moment.

'He?s got the break he wants and we?ll now get him ready for the Festival,' the County Carlow handler told www.williamhillradio.com.
