Power play has Drew revved up for Final Demand

Power play has Drew revved up for Final Demand

Final Demand can cap a dream weekend for owner Bryan Drew if he wins on his chasing debut at Navan on Sunday.

A high-class novice hurdler last season, he met with only one defeat, at the Cheltenham Festival behind The New Lion.

A wide-margin winner at Punchestown subsequently, he is among Willie Mullins’ brightest prospects for this season.

He is due to run in the Race And Stay Irish EBF Beginners Chase, and Drew, who saw his Panic Attack win the feature race at Cheltenham on Saturday, can barely contain his excitement.

“It certainly sets us up nicely for Final Demand,” said Drew after watching Panic Attack land the Paddy Power Gold Cup.

“It’s his first day at school over fences and it’s very exciting. He is probably the best horse I have ever been involved in and if we can keep him in one piece then there’s hopefully lots to look forward to with him.

“I just want him to have a nice first run over fences and come home safe and then we can hopefully look ahead after that.”
