Tom Cooper has indicated that Shuttle Diplomacy will start off over hurdles in November.

After winning on debut in January, the French bred four-year-old followed-up in style in the Listed Kevin McManus Bookmaker Champion INH Flat Race at Limerick.

Easy to back for a Grade 1 contest at Punchestown, the Ciaran Mooney-owned bay ultimately ran below par when finishing ninth of 12.

Speaking after the success of Amen Kate at Listowel on Friday, Cooper said: "He is back in work and he'll run over hurdles in November.

"He wants proper soft ground and we're very happy with him."
