Bog Warriorset for drop in distance

BOG WARRIOR is likely to drop back in distance for his next start at Leopardstown following his brilliant display in the Drinmore Novice Chase at Fairyhouse.

The lightly-raced seven-year-old routed the opposition in the two-and-a-half-mile Grade One and currently holds entries in the two-mile-one-furlong Racing Post Novice Chase and the Fort Leney Novice Chase over three miles.

With conditions at Leopardstown likely to come up testing, trainer Tony Martin is currently favouring the former.
