Navan 4.40
By Irish Racing (Sean aka Placespotter)
SEAN - Navan 4.40 Handicap (Div 1) 1 mile 6 furlongs - 19 run - Good to Yielding (heavy rain)
We have a couple in the Tracker here in Pale Moonlight and Tenth Amendment and with slightly less rain I'd have been particularly keen on them, I think there are better options though in the deteriorating ground but i'd not put any of you who like a small e/w nibble on the Trackers off a very small e/w investment with plenty of enhanced place Offers.
At the top end of the market you can get around 5/1 the field and the likes of Celtic Revival who mostly runs on the AW , Franno who is upped in trip and who is running off what I think is an inflated mark and MAKE GOOD catch the eye.
MAKE GOOD has been off for 309 days, however it placed on sole run last year off a similar break and prior to that had form figures of 12211 before a 2 year break between 2020 and 2022. Clearly a fragile but capable horse and you have to think it'll only run IF they are convinced it's ready and can deliver.
Appian Way is of interest for Elliott but it does strike me as a training run for Hurdles and I could give a small squeak to Mutadaawel, but a couple at bigger odds really caught my eye.
VIRTUAL HUG was placed on its penultimate run over just slightly shorter and noted staying on well, it has got decent 2 mile hurdle form in soft ground and I don't think anything is going to be romping home in Flat Race style in this ground and I'd be confident of an enhanced place based on form. SCALOR has also won a Hurdle race over 2 miles, is OK on Yielding and Soft and runs prominently, at 33-40/1 I can't resist a dabble.
