Prince De Beauchene looks set to complete hat-trick

Prince De Beauchene should complete a hat-trick of hunter chase wins in the Best Of Luck To Bally Hale Shamrocks Tetratema Cup in Gowran Park today.

The Willie Mullins-trained veteran has shown at Thurles and Leopardstown in recent weeks that he retains plenty of his enthusiasm and he might be capable of successfully conceding 7lb. to Adrian Maguire’s charge Two Rockers, a useful performer when trained by Alan King before winning four of his five point-to-point starts for his current handler.

Winner of the Grade 2 Bobbyjo Chase at his prime, in 2012, Prince De Beauchene has looked in great shape this season, winning a point-to-point in Cregg before outclassing inferior rivals in a hunters chase in Thurles.
