Friday's best at Dundalk came from Cairo who won, the 30/100 favourite disputed the lead going to the front 2 out. He was pressed soon after but he kept on well asserting himself in the closing stages beating News At Ten by 2 lengths. In the other race Segomo failed to finish, the 5/4 favourite was 4th at halfway but he was pulled up quickly 2 out. The contest went to Tabuk who beat Alazne by 3/4 of a length.
A busy weekend begins with 7 races at Navan on Saturday where there are 2 features.
4.20: PS Supplies Doors & Floors Flyingbolt Novice Chase (Grade 3)
4: Hollow Games: A smart chaser who has been a course winner in his career. He found Grade 1 company too much when finishing 4th in the Racing Post Novices Chase at Leopardstown last time so dropping down should suit. He is still open to improvement in this sphere but gets the nod.
4.50: Navan Members Veterans Handicap Chase.
3: The Echo Boy: Put in a respectable performance when fifth on his fences return over course and distance 20 days ago. The ground is also a positive for this 10-y-o who tops the shortlist off a 1lb lower mark and he can win here.
