Prince Of Scars could run in the Cleeve Hurdle at Cheltenham after his victory in the Christmas Hurdle at Leopardstown.

Gordon Elliott's improving six-year-old entered the picture for the Ladbrokes World Hurdle after he defeated fellow Gigginstown runner Alpha Des Obeaux by four lengths to claim his third success on the spin.

Prince Of Scars will now run in either the Cleeve at the end of the month or stay closer to home for the Galmoy Hurdle.

"Prince of Scars will be entered for the Galmoy Hurdle at Gowran Park and for the Cleeve Hurdle at Cheltenham," Elliott told his Boylesports blog.

"Wherever the ground is softest he will probably go - all being well it will be Cheltenham, but if the ground is too good he mightn't go."
