Saturday was an interesting day for my picks at Navan, in the 1.37 Rumbled Again was 7th. The 9/2 shot disputed the lead but dropped down the field from halfway. He weakened soon after while upfront As It Was beat Blue News by 1 3/4 lengths. In the other big race Reinforce finished 3rd. The 11/10 favourite sat 2nd early but made no impression from a furlong out. He had no extra close to home dropping to 3rd,the race was won by Kodi Red who beat Wild Rover by 2 3/4 lengths.
Seven races at both Sligo and Fairyhouse take place on Sunday with a couple of main events.
Sligo 3.20: Friends Of Brian Mulligan Opportunity Handicap Hurdle.
5: Red Ball Of Fire: Picked up both her wins last season on this course and returned to finish a creditable 3rd 19 days ago despite not getting a clear run. She switches from the flat to hurdles and is worth another look.
Fairyhouse 4.15: Irish Stallion Farms EBF Brownstown Stakes (Group 3)
5: Affogato: Achieved her second win of the year over course and distance when last seen 30 days ago. She easily came home by 4 1/4 lengths and with further improvement expected she could give her trainer a third win in this race since 2015.
