Another tilt at the St James's Place Festival Challenge Cup Open Hunters' Chase at Cheltenham in March is likely for It's On The Line.
Second in the long-standing contest 12-months ago and since successful in the Punchestown equivalent, the Emmet Mullins-trained six-year-old registered a seventh career win when scoring at Down Royal on St Stephen's Day.
Also on the mark at Limerick with Romeo Magico over the festive period, Mullins commented: "We'll work him back from the Cheltenham Open Hunters and will possibly run in a hunter chase between now and then. He could also possibly go back for a point-to-point.
"He is a bit of a rogue so we will try to have him spot on for the day in Cheltenham."
