A good start to the week saw Harmonya Maker finish 3rd, the 8/15 favourite was 2nd after the 3rd improving to lead at the 8th. She was strongly pressed entering the straight being passed before the last. She made no impression sitting 3rd in the final 100 yards allowing Saylavee to win by 2 1/2 lengths. In the big Grade 1 Galopin Des Champs won, the 2/9 favourite was 3rd at halfway challenging entering the straight. He led before 2 out gaining a 5 length advantage before the last, he kept on well easily beating Fakir D’Oudairies by 13 lengths. As he crossed the line he was cut to 7/4 for the Cheltenham Gold Cup.
The week continues with 8 races at Naas on Tuesday where there are 2 features.
12.05: Bar One Racing Guaranteed Odds All Channels Beginners Chase.
4: Journey With Me: A promising horse who was a good novice hurdler last season. He was travelling well until he fell 2 out on his chase debut at Gowran Park 24 days ago however that can be overlooked and if he has recovered well then he can definitely take this.
1.05: Tote Navan Novice Hurdle (Grade 2)
4: Inthepocket: Looked a fine prospect when winning on debut at Wexford 51 days ago, he impressively drew clear on the run-in to win by 6 lengths. With plenty more to come now upped in trip he is the pick here to take a good-looking renewal of this re-sheduled contest for the winning team of Rachael Blackmore and Henry De Bromhead.
