Limestone Lad could be a surprise runner in the Powers Gold Cup Chase at Fairyhouse on Saturday, it emerged today.
James Bowe's nine-year-old finished a six-and-a-half-length third behind Bannow Bay in the Ballymore Properties Champion Stayers Hurdle at Fairyhouse last Thursday after an interrupted preparation.
