Special Tiara will try to end his campaign on a high at either Sandown or Punchestown following his fine effort in defeat at Cheltenham.

The eight-year-old made a gallant effort to make all when three lengths third to Dodging Bullets in the Betway Queen Mother Champion Chase and will now bid to go two places better in search of a second Grade One success over fences.

Trainer Henry de Bromhead will look at the Celebration Chase at Sandown and the Boylesports.com Champion Chase at Punchestown as his final calling point of the campaign.

"We're delighted with him. He's in really good form since he came back. All's good, so we can't complain at all," said de Bromhead.

"He'll probably run in the Celebration or the race at Punchestown, one or the other."

Should he go to Punchestown then he would be trying to emulate his illustrious stable companion Sizing Europe, who has won that Grade One contest over two miles twice in the last three years.

Now aged 13, Sizing Europe was seventh in the Queen Mother which he won in 2011. De Bromhead reports his stable stalwart to be none the worse for his Cheltenham exertions but there had been no decision yet on his future.

"He's good. There are no immediate plans, so we'll just see," said the Co Waterford handler.
