Last Instalment and Dunguib close to return

Last Instalment and Dunguib could both make their comebacks from injury next month.

Trainer Philip Fenton is considering the Kinloch Brae Chase over two and a half miles at Thurles on January 16 for Last Instalment, and is targeting a hurdles race for Dunguib at Naas two days later.

Last Instalment has been sidelined with a tendon injury since taking his unbeaten record over fences to four in the Dr PJ Moriarty Novice Chase at Leopardstown in February 2012.
