Navan Handicap

Improving 4yo filly got off the mark on turf return over C&D in April and decent efforts twice since, latest when getting up late for second at Tipperary; return to this stiffer track should suit and one for the shortlist although ideally wants it softer.

Won here over 6f last summer off 56, later adding Curragh win off 66; looked to be returning to form at Listowel six days ago.

Went close last season over 7f at Leopardstown and Cork; coped well with drop back to 5f to open account last month when well-backed at Naas, making all in holding market rival Irish Rumour by a head; 2lb worse off with that rival here but stiffer finish and low draw should suit.

C&D winner last September off 62 and best run since on latest when strong-finishing head off market rival Surpass And Shine at Naas last month; 2lb better off so every chance.

Speedy 5yo whose two wins include over C&D over a year ago; some late headway on seasonal return at the Curragh on Wednesday so don't rule out with 10lb claimed.
