Foreman ready for Cork bow

FOREMAN is set to make his debut for new trainer Charlie Swan in Sunday’s O’Connell Logistics Hilly Way Chase at Cork.

A one-time Irish Champion Hurdle winner, Foreman excelled in his first term over fences, even reversing Arkle placings with Voy Por Ustedes in the Maghull Novices’ Chase.

However, he could not repeat that performance in three starts last season and has been given a change of scenery by owner JP McManus, moving from Thierry Doumen in France to Swan.
