GORDON ELLIOTT is eyeing up a return to Royal Ascot for Pallasator following his Grade 2 win over hurdles at Fairyhouse on Sunday.
A former top-class stayer on the Flat for Sir Mark Prescott, Pallasator finished 12th in the Ascot Gold Cup on his last trip to the showpiece meeting in 2016.

However, since being sent to Elliott he has sparked back into form and claimed his second win from four starts over hurdles at the weekend.
The Cullentra House handler is also keen to have a go at some of the Flat prizes this summer after a possible outing at Punchestown.

Elliott said: “He was very good. Davy (Russell) said he hated the ground, but he’s enjoying jumping and he’s got a new lease of life.
“The plan now would be to go Punchestown now, all being well, and we might go back to Ascot then for one of those long-distance Flat races.”
