SHAMROCK BIDDING FOR 7 NAPS IN A ROW: SHARMOCK heads to Navan on Sunday in search of his SEVENTH winning nap in a row after Monalee (WON EVENS) landed the nap on Saturday.
It’s now SIX winning naps in a row:
Sat: LE RICHEBOURG (NAP) WON 11/10
Sun: LE BAGUE AU ROI (NAP) WON 10/11
Sun: SINORIA (NAP) WON 6/1
Wed: BLACK TEARS (NAP) WON 8/13
Thu: RAKHEEN STATE (NAP) WON 9/10
Sat: MONALEE (NAP) WON EVENS
A good card at Navan on Sunday with Ladbrokes sponsoring the two Grade 2 races.
Both races have attracted six runners but they look very competitive in their own right, not to mention providing further Cheltenham Festival clues.
In the Ladbrokes Ireland Boyne Hurdle at 2.20pm Willie Mullins and Gordon Elliott have five runners between them but they might not be able to cope with the Charles Byrnes trained Off You Go who bids to follow up his success in the Ladbrokes Hurdle at Leopardstown earlier in the month.
Grand National hero Tiger Roll and former Martin Pipe winner Bless The Wings, now a 14-year-old, are also in the race with presumably their main targets being the Cross Country at next month’s Festival.
In the Ladbrokes Acca Boosty Ten Up Novice Chase at 3.25pm another former Martin Pipe winner Champagne Classic should be hard to beat after a good comeback run but the ‘bounce’ factor always is the back of your mind.
The pressure is on as I have a naps sequence to try and extend !!
There’s a cracking hunter chase race on the card at 4pm and Ucello Conti looks the answer, even though he is closely matched with Sydney Paget on point form. Ucello Conto has won well since and looks the percentage call.
SHAMROCK’S BETS:
NAP: UCELLO CONTI (4.00 Navan)
