LEITRIM CHIEF ran to a fairly useful level first time up over hurdles when third in a large-field maiden at Navan in January, and with that performance backed up by the timefigure, he looks to have leading claims on first start for his new stable. Hasty Brook and Ballycoose are a couple of others to take seriously having made promising starts to their careers, also.
