Rocky's Diamond
Classy hurdler made a bright start to his chasing career with a beginners' win at Galway (2m2f, gd-yld) followed by listed chase second at Wexford (2m7f, gd-yld); came up short in a grade 2 novice chase at Punchestown in November; poor back over hurdles the last twice and now makes handicap chase debut after 137 days off; market can guide.

From the connections
“He's only in nine weeks which is not much. I was worried Rockys Diamond's jumping would be too exuberant as he's very brave. I am glad we've got that out of the way, we were toying with idea of going to Listowel but the fences are a bit bigger there and two are close to the finish so we thought we'd be safer coming here and find his feet. He will have leant a lot, that was the first time he'd jumped a fence on grass. We can chill out a bit now and make a plan for the rest of the season Declan Queally, trainer”
“Rocky's Diamond is only five and has a great wind and demeanour. He's very cool and acts like an older horse. He's entered in the Stayers'. I don't know whether this is a good enough trial but we'll probably take our chance. It was trappy but Shane used his head and didn't let it turn into a s print." - Declan Queally, trainer.”
