Dublin Racing Festival day two tips: Mighty Potter can build on Drinmore success

MIGHTY TALENTED: Mighty Potter won the  Drinmore Novice chase in fine style last time out and will be hard to stop if he rocks up in the same form at Leopardstown. Picture: Healy Racing.

Mighty Potter was mightily impressive in the Drinmore Novice Chase at Fairyhouse and will take a great deal of beating in the Ladbrokes Novice Chase, the first of the four Grade One races on Sunday’s card in Leopardstown.

A useful hurdler, he made a perfect start to his chasing career by winning at Down Royal and took a considerable step forward with an impressive display in the Grade One Drinmore Novice Chase at Fairyhouse, where he had one of his rivals here, Gaillard Du Mesnil, chasing him home. He beat that rival by four and a half lengths, but what was most pleasing was the way he galloped from the back of the last to the winning line. Clearly, there was much more to give, and he can confirm that form.
