Navan Race 2 - Irish Stallion Farms Ebf Nursery Hcp (Birdcatcher Series)
SUPREME LORD (1) Comprehensive victory when winning by almost 3 1/2L last start around here. Has the necessary speed to mitigate the wide draw. Winning hope. TRADEWINDS (3) On a short turnaround. Fairly underwhelming when 6th last time at Curragh but will appreciate the drop in grade. Should be rolling forward early from the wide draw. Goes close. LADY PATRONA (6) Finished on top by 1L last start at Sligo and gets the perfect draw. Won't be far away during the run. Bit of extra work to do with more weight. Capable of forward showing and can be competitive. LA TACHE (2) Came in 4th last time at Cork but goes down in grade. Prefers to settle towards the tail. Key player.

Put a gap on the rest when winning by just short of 3 1/2L last start at this venue. Has the early speed to burn across from the wide draw. Can take this out.

Started $7.00 and ran 4th last time at Cork but has been racing in stronger company. Might be ridden for luck. Worthy of strong consideration.

Backing up quickly for this race. Odds of $6.00 and sub-standard effort when 6th last time at Curragh but matched against less formidable competition. Should go close.

On a short back up. At $15.00 ran 5th last run at Roscommon but competing in an easier class. Should muster plenty of early toe. Will be down in distance. Will need to elevate.

Chimed in with a win by 1L last start at Sligo and gets a favourable draw. Will be positive in the run early. Has to cope with a weight increase. Can win.

Jumped at $5.50 and not up to scratch when 6th last time at Curragh but up against weaker rivals. Should race on the speed. Goes down in weight. Place at best.

Was $12.00 and lacklustre showing when 8th last time at Curragh but challenged by less formidable competitors. Will benefit with the weight drop. Difficult to warm to at present.
