Willie Mullins is keen to get Un De Sceaux back in action as soon as possible after his Christmas mishap.

The exciting chaser tipped up when looking set to score in the Grade One over two miles at Leopardstown's big fixture.

That was his first run of the season having been forced to miss the Tingle Creek at Sandown when Mullins felt he just was not quite at concert pitch after a racecourse gallop at Thurles.

Mullins told RUK: "Un De Sceaux rode out the following morning with not a bother on him.

"He is good so I've got to find a quick target for him and get him back on the track."
