Warren Greatrex will train Mighty Bandit for the Triumph Hurdle at next month's Cheltenham Festival after he changed hands for €420,000 at Monday's high-profile Tattersalls Ireland sale at Fairyhouse.
The four-year-old was one of 29 horses to go through the sales ring as part of a dispersal sale by prominent owners Andy and Gemma Brown following their shock decision to quit the sport late last month.
