The Paul Nolan trained Noble Prince, winner at last year's Cheltenham Festival, continues on his route to the Ryanair Chase at Cheltenham when facing four rivals in the Grade 2 Normans Grove Chase at Fairyhouse on Sunday. Nolan reported "we were very pleased with him at Leopardstown - Big Zeb beat us easily in the end but it was a very good run from our horse and I think that he will improve with a faster pace. "He's still a decent enough two-mile chaser but two miles and five furlongs around Cheltenham is right up his street. "He travelled and jumped well in the Jewson last season. The Ryanair will obviously be a different gravy this time and it looks like it will be a very competitive contest." Noble Prince faces Tranquil Sea, Galway Plate winner Blazing Tempo, Saludos and Psycho.
