On a poor Saturday at Navan Drop The Anchor was 7th, the 10/1 shot didn't travel well dropping to the rear after a slight mistake at the 5th. He marginally improved from 2 out keeping on at one pace while upfront Hms Seahorse beat Felix Desjy by 2 1/4 lengths. In the other race Spirit Of Legend failed to finish. The 9/4 favourite was 3rd and had every chance when he was brought down 3 out, Path D'Oroux won the race by 4 3/4 lengths.
The weekend continues with 7 races at Thurles on Sunday where we have 2 highlights.
1.10: Coolmore N.H. Sires Mogul Irish EBF Mares Novice Chase (Grade 2)
1: Allegorie De Vassy: A promising horse who arrives here unbeaten for trainer Willie Mullins after easily winning on fences debut in a Grade 2 at Limerick over christmas. She beat the reopposing Malina Girl by 19 lengths and is very hard to look past here as she looks for a 4-timer.
1.40: Horse & Jockey Hotel Chase (Grade 2)
1: Chacun Pour Soi: A top-class chaser who was a bit below form when 3rd behind Blue Lord in the Paddy's Rewards Club Chase at Leopardstown 26 days ago. He may not be the force he once was but he has a good chance here and should have enough to go close as he attempts to get back on track and pick up his 9th career win.
