2.20 Navan: Zanoosh
Zanoosh is a mare in tremendous form and can complete the hat-trick. She was a comfortable winner of a handicap a this track last time out off a mark of 120 and won with a good deal of authority that day suggesting this step up to Listed company will not be a problem.
She travels well in her races and is a strong stayer at two and a half miles which will be important given the very testing conditions.
2.50 Navan: Irancy
This race is a drop in grade and a step up in trip for Irancy, who needs to bounce back from a poor effort behind Lossiemouth in the December Hurdle at Leopardstown.
He has the best form in the race being a Grade One-winning novice last season at Punchestown and he will find this a lot easier than the two races he has contested this year. Granted he has to spark back to life, but this is an ideal opportunity for him to do just that.
3.50 Navan: Gold Dancer
Gold Dancer is a consistent performer and he once again gave his running when second at Limerick to Final Demand in the Grade One Faugheen Novices Chase.
Prior to that, he had chased home Romeo Coolio in the Drinmore at Fairyhouse and he does not meet anything of that class today in this Grade Two contest. He will be tough to beat and can gain reward for his consistency.
4.20 Navan: Solly Attwell
Solly Attwell has been shaping well in competitive handicaps having won twice earlier this season and can regain winning ways under the in-form Michael Kenneally, who is tremendous value for the 5lb that he claims.
The heavy conditions and three-mile trip are ideal for him, and this race is no tougher than those that he won earlier this season. He represents some value in an open looking handicap.
