Briar Hill stayed on course for one of the longer events at the Cheltenham Festival in March as he kept his unbeaten record under Rules intact with a workmanlike victory in the Slaney Novice Hurdle at Naas.
Last season's Champion Bumper hero made short work of inferior rivals on his hurdling debut at Wexford in November and asserted his authority over just one rival in last month's Navan Novice Hurdle. He had to carry a Grade One penalty in the two-and-a-half-mile Slaney, but was still a 1-3 favourite to beat two opponents.
