UK Horse Racing Tips: Navan

ROEILLAUN has certainly found her form and is deserving of a breakthrough success after a couple of decent efforts. She only lost out in the final strides when runner-up at the Curragh in the middle of last month and went well again when third to the well-regarded Zoar at Naas last time. She probably has most to fear from the newcomers in the line-up, with Your A Daisy, Marcesence and Red Lily all worth noting when the betting markets begin to take shape.
Prediction : 1st Roeillaun 2nd Your A Daisy 3rd Marcescence

SUPREME LORD was well on top when scoring on his handicap debut over this course and distance last week. A short-price favourite on that occasion, he picked up in some style to see off the re-opposing Howlin Wolf, and is taken to cope with a 12lb hike in the ratings. The latter will likely finish second best again, having previously won at the Curragh, and he's preferred to the likes of La Tache and Lady Patrone, who both make their handicap debuts.
Prediction : 1st Supreme Lord 2nd Howlin Wolf 3rd La Tache

STEEL MAGNOLIA wasn't winning out of turn when a clear-cut scorer over this distance at Naas just under two weeks ago. She came from a little off the pace and skipped clear late on for a most comfortable success, with that run coming on the back of a fair effort at the same course. Simmering Seas has also found her form and while she has ground to make up on Steel Magnolia, she put up another good effort at the Curragh last time and rates as a threat. Rosato won twice over 6f here last October, while Ballysax Lil' Mick was beaten three lengths over C&D in June and has since run quite well at Naas and the Curragh.
Prediction : 1st Steel Magnolia 2nd Simmering Seas 3rd Rosato

EROSANDPSYCHE boasts enough recent form to win a good race like this. He has been keeping decent company and was only just touched off on a couple of occasions this season, notably in a handicap at Cork in July and again when runner-up to Likedbymike in a Listed contest at the same track last Sunday. Reese Holohan is a notable booking and with his claim lightening the load, perhaps the eight-year-old can get back to winning ways. Amiata has won two of his last three starts and looks a big danger, while Moltophino can't be ignored and he was very well supported when second over 6f at the Curragh last time.
Prediction : 1st Erosandpsyche 2nd Amiata 3rd Moltophino

ELMAKAYA has been knocking on the door and should be up to landing a maiden of this standard. The Wootton Bassett filly ran a solid race when third in a decent rated contest at Killarney last time and a similar effort should be enough to get her head in front now. She has a mark of 78, despite easing 3lb since that run, and that sets the standard. Nautic Star has been placed in all four outings this year and is another who wouldn't be winning out of turn. Ballydoyle filly Flower Forest has run with credit on both her starts to date and also has to come into calculations.
Prediction : 1st Elmakaya 2nd Nautic Star 3rd Flower Forest

MAKE THE TIDE won well here on Wednesday and can bag a quick follow-up success. The Willie McCreery-trained filly finished off strongly to lead inside the final furlong and record a two-length win. Going a bit further could unlock further improvement. Albatala was an easy winner on the Flat on her penultimate outing before a solid run over hurdles at Sligo. She could be the danger. Nephin Mountain won over a mile here last time, beating Alto Sax by half a length, although the runner-up may be able to reverse the form at the revised weights over this trip.
Prediction : 1st Make The Tide 2nd Albatala 3rd Alto Sax

This might be the day for MILLHONE, who has been knocking on the door. The Ghaiyyath filly has been placed on her last four outings and drops back in trip having tried 1m6f here last week. She is just 1lb higher than when chasing home Sunrush then and the addition of blinkers could prove the difference. Nibras Rainbow ran well when third over this trip at the Curragh and he's entitled to play a big part. Connova is another consistent sort who has to come into calculations.
Prediction : 1st Millhone 2nd Nibras Rainbow 3rd Connova

HANDANI can make the breakthrough after three placed efforts. Dermot Weld's charge ran well when third behind Acula at the Curragh in a solid looking maiden. He has an official rating of 84 and that sets a decent standard. Royal Bones ran a big race at Galway on his second outing and he looks like an obvious danger. The Lope De Vega gelding steps back up in trip now. Deetee has a long absence to overcome, but his runner-up effort to Shackleton at the Curragh reads well and market moves would be interesting.
Prediction : 1st Handani 2nd Royal Bones 3rd Deetee
