Last season's Champion Hurdle sixth Identity Thief is to make his chase debut next week, with his trainer Henry De Bromhead hoping to run the Grade 1 winner at either Galway or Punchestown.
Speaking following the win of his Lion In His Heart at Tipperary, De Bromhead stated "he (Identity Thief) seems in good form and we were looking at maybe Punchestown or Galway next week subject to ground; we just want a nice ease in the ground.
"He's in super form and jumping well so we're happy."
