Devil set for Leopardstown

EXCITING novice chaser Kill Devil Hill is set for a crack at the Dr. PJ Moriarty Chase at Leopardstown on February 12.

Paul Nolan’s six-year-old holds entries in the Irish Independent Arkle Challenge Trophy and the Royal & SunAlliance Chase at the Cheltenham Festival but finished a disappointing third behind Missed That at Leopardstown last time out.

“Kill Devil Hill is improving well. He is in good shape and has rested up well after his setback at Leopardstown.

“He’s a very good horse and we haven’t seen the best of him yet.”
