Fastorslow ruled out for season Fastorslow has been ruled out for the remainder of the season after picking up an injury on his comeback run in the John Durkan Memorial Chase at Punchestown. The three-time Grade 1 winner finished fourth behind Fact To File on his seasonal debut 11 days ago. Prior to resuming full work again trainer Martin Brassil had the Saint des Saints gelding checked by his veterinary team and an issue was discovered which led to the decision to miss the rest of the campaign. In a statement released to journalist Dave Keena the Curragh trainer said:- “Following the John Durkan Chase, Fastorslow suffered a soft tissue injury. “Before he resumed back into full work, we had him checked over by our veterinary team. They have advised us that he requires time off so he will miss the remainder of this season. “It is not career threatening and we expect that he will be back for the resumption of the 2025/26 season.”
