Irish Triumph Hurdle hope Convincing will have one more outing before heading to Cheltenham says his trainer, John Murphy.
Murphy has penciled in next Saturday's Grade 3 Juvenile Novice Hurdle at Fairyhouse for Convincing, who has won his last two races by narrow margins at Punchestown and Leopardstown.
Jockey Eddie Power said recently that he was "the laziest thing I've ever ridden", but connections hope he will be up for the Festival challenge ahead.
Convincing is currently available at 44 for the Triumph Hurdle, having originally been best-priced at 230 in the Betfair win market.
