Coral has trimmed Rite Of Passage to 3-1 (from 4-1) favourite for next month's Neptune Investment Management Novices Hurdle, following the six-year-old's victory at Punchestown this afternoon.
"Should connections choose to go to Cheltenham, the distance of the Neptune Investment Management Novices Hurdle should hold no fears, and if he does run in that race rather than the Supreme, Rite Of Passage would also avoid Dunguib," said Coral's David Stevens.
Elsewhere, Solwhit is the 10-3 favourite with Coral for the Champion Hurdle, ahead of Zaynar at 7-2, following the news that the latter's stablemate and last year's beaten favourite, Binocular, will miss this year's race.
Coral are offering punters a free bet on this year's Cheltenham Festival.
