Colm Murphy will enter Empire Of Dirt at both Leopardstown later this month and Cheltenham next month.
The nine-year-old won the valuable Leopardstown Handicap Chase last month and could now try to add to his laurels back at the Foxrock venue.
Murphy said: "He seems really well and I'm delighted with him since Leopardstown. I'm not sure where he will go now.
"There is a two-mile-five-furlong handicap chase at Leopardstown towards the end of the month and he'll get an entry in that. He will also get an entry in the race that was called the Byrne Group Plate (now the the Brown Advisory and Merriebelle Stable Plate) at Cheltenham."
