The week ended on a high note with my selection Lovely Esteem winning. The 2/5 favourite led from a furlong out and despite some pressure from Thrumps Dream she stayed on well inside the final 110 yards and comfortably came home by 2 1/2 lengths.
Another busy weekend begins with 7 races at Navan where the big race is the 1.57 when 21 start the Navan Handicap Hurdle. Damalisque showed signs of improvement when finishing 2nd at Naas 63 days ago,that was his second race back after a long absence and he is very capable of going one better here. Agusta Gold is a smart chaser who was at her best when winning at Fairyhouse when last seen at the beginning of this month and is the main challenger here. Uisce Solas arrives here after an easy 12 length success at Naas 10 days ago and she definitely deserves respect here. The other two with a chance in this competitive race are Column Of Fire who makes his return after falling in the Martin Pipe at Cheltenham in March but he should still be a big player while Silver Sheen will be a contender if he recreates the form that saw him win at Warwick in his last race a year ago.
Big race prediction: 15: Damalisque.
