Saturday's best at Naas came from Captain Cody who was 2nd, the 1/1 favourite was 4th at halfway making progress approaching 2 out. He improved to go 2nd inside the final furlong but he made no impression in the closing stages allowing Answer To Kayf to win by 1 1/2 lengths. The days other pick Maskada was 3rd in a race won by Allegorie De Vassy who beat Riviere D’etel by 4 lengths.
Sunday sees 7 races at Navan with 2 topping the bill.
2.45: William Hill Boyne Hurdle (Grade 2)
2: Blazing Khal: A smart hurdler who has been a course and distance winner. He was a bit below form although not disgraced when 6th behind the reopposing Sire Du Berlais in the Stayers Hurdle at Cheltenham on his last outing. He can make a successful return and take this race for the second year running.
3.45: William Hill Ten Up Novice Chase (Grade 2)
3: Minella Cocooner: A good-looking horse who didn't need to be at his best when winning over course and distance 22 days ago. He led from the 4th travelling well from 2 out, he was clear at the last staying on well and comfortably coming home by 2 3/4 lengths. He should go well again and pick up his 5th career win.
