Noel Meade is considering plans for his two stable stars Disko and Road To Respect.
Disko returned to action with an all-the-way win at Down Royal over two and a half miles, while Road To Respect came off second best in a tussle with Outlander for the JNwine.com Champion Chase on the same card.
"Disko's in good shape, not a problem at all," Meade told At The Races.
"I had a look back at the video and it was great. It's amazing that when you watch it live and then watch it back, it's like they've won twice. Unfortunately when I looked at the other race, the other fellow still got beat!
"I'm pretty sure Road To Respect won't run again until Christmas. Disko will have an entry in the John Durkan, but he'll also have an entry in the King George so we'll see.
"I was talking to the handicapper and he's got Disko 1lb higher than Road To Respect so we're getting up there.
"I've always thought Disko was a three-miler but the Gold Cup is a long way away, a lot of water can run under the bridge, but we'll hope that he is (a Gold Cup horse)."
