Punchestown on Cards for Cue Colin Tizzard is considering a trip to the Punchestown Festival for Cue Card following his devastating display in the Weatherbys Champion Bumper at Cheltenham. Sent off at 40-1 despite an impressive debut at Fontwell in January, the four-year-old was still on the bridle turning for home and scooted up the Prestbury Park hill to score by eight lengths. While shocked with the ease of Cue Card's success, Tizzard admits his victory came as no surprise and he is hoping there will be plenty of other exciting days ahead. "He's come out of it in really good form but we haven't really discussed what's going to happen next," said Tizzard. "There's really only two options. One is for him to go out into the field and the other is for him to go to Punchestown, but we'll see. "He's absolutely bolted up on the day and obviously I wasn't expecting him to go and win like that, but I thought he ticked every box. "He scooted up on his debut and Joe (Tizzard, jockey) had a job to pull him up. "He was almost in the back straight before he stopped him and I always think that's a sign of a good horse." With Cue Card seemingly having speed to burn and his dam having won over three miles and competed in a Grand National, Tizzard feels his charge could be the complete package. "He's a very well bred horse and has so much pace," the trainer continued. "His dam won over three miles so there is stamina there as well, so he has everything really and we'd be guessing where he's going to end up. "He hasn't schooled over hurdles yet but if we decide to miss Punchestown he might just have a jump over one or two before he goes out for the summer. "I'm sure he'll take to it as everything he's done has been very good. "Hopefully there is a lot to look forward to and if I can't get excited about a horse like this I might as well give up!"
