The 'For Auction' Novice Hurdle at Navan on November 9 is a possibility for Princely Conn.

Tom Mullins' youngster created a big impression when winning at Punchestown last week, prompting the trainer to predict he had a big future.

"I'm thrilled with the way he came out of the race," said Mullins.

"There are no definite plans and to be honest there are not too many options for him.

"He could run in the 'For Auction' Novice Hurdle at Navan next month, that's a possibility.

"I wouldn't want to run him on heavy ground, but anything else should be fine.

"I think he's the sort of horse you'd probably keep away from the ground in January and February, but up to Christmas he should be fine.

"He's a nice big horse, over 16 hands, and I was thrilled with the way he jumped the other day."
