Peter Fahey's stable is in red-hot form in advance of Irish Champions Weekend and he outlined plans for his horses next weekend.

"We have three for champions weekend which is brilliant," he said.

"Kojin got 7lb for winning (at Clonmel on Thursday) and he will probably go to Leopardstown for the mile and a half race (Irish Stallion Farms EBF 'Petingo' Handicap).

"He is in good form and Clonmel was as short (extended nine furlongs) as he wanted. We had to run him because he wasn't guaranteed a run and luckily enough he got away with winning over a short trip.

"Disco Boots who won in Roscommon might sneak into the mile and a quarter race in the Curragh (Irish Stallion Farms EBF 'Northfields' Handicap) as will Soaring Monarch who won in Galway.

"We have three with nice chances.

Fahey has four winners and a runner-up from his last five runners at the time of writing.
