It wasn't a good day on Tuesday with my pick Bold Emperor failing to finish. The 3/1 favourite led early and had a 5 length advantage at halfway. He saw his lead reduced from 2 out where he landed awkwardly and fell allowing the 5/1 chance Bridge Native to pull away and win by 8 1/2 lengths.
There are 8 races at Navan on Wednesday where the main event comes at 4.05 when 15 start the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Fillies Handicap. Two of the field renew a rivalry from Listowel 2 weeks ago,Emilie Gray put up a good fight that day to finish second by a neck and given her recent form she should reverse the result here but the winner Petticoat Rule is still a serious threat. That victory was her career best performance and a second place at Gowran Park before that shows she is having a good spell. Rosmana bounced back after finishing 10th at Windsor with a good 4th at Punchestown 22 days ago,she goes on the shortlist with the easing ground in her favour. The other two to look at are Sasta who arrives after picking up a victory at Listowel last month and should go well while Mean Fomhair won a handicap at Bellewstown a week ago. She led inside the final 50 yards and just held on to come home by a short head and another run like that will see her in the mix.
Big race prediction: 1: Emilie Gray.
