Michael Winters will consider plenty of options at next month's Galway Festival for Missunited following her fine effort at Leopardstown.

The six-year-old was the only horse to trouble Pale Mimosa when bustling up the Dermot Weld-trained winner in the Saval Beg Stakes on Friday.

The County Cork trainer will now consider at least three races - two on the Flat and the Guinness Galway Handicap Hurdle, which he won last summer with Rebel Fitz - for Missunited.

"She's spot-on and is in great order. Seamie Heffernan (jockey) said she's improving every day and they did a marvellous job with the track," said Winters.

"She'll run in Galway, maybe in the Guinness Hurdle, but there are a couple of other options for her there during the week as well.

"She's had three races in quick succession now, so we know she can take her racing well. She is very versatile and goes on any ground.

"There's an amateur riders' Flat race and another one we could look at for her as well. There are two Flat options for her, as far as I know.

"We will also give her an entry in the Guinness Hurdle we won last year with Rebel Fitz, but it is not definite she would go for that."
