Navan 2.30

Navan 2.30 Handicap Hurdle - 2 miles 4 furlongs 19 run
 
This will be attritional on this lovely Right Handed galloping track.
 
All For Rachel, Golden Nugget, Chosen Diamond and Mighty Jeremy all hold chances but I'm not convinced about them in the likely tough conditions. Elliott also runs the unexposed Eberneezer Scrooge and that type is hard to discount.
 
I do think conditions play very much in favour of BUTTY O'BRIEN and CLONBURY BRIDGE and both are confident selections. BUTTY O BRIEN is a Course and Distance winner and really looks the obvious one here and CLONBURY BRIDGE is very well handicapped and has a solid profile at prices around the 7-9/1 range both look each way bankers.
 
At bigger prices BENKEI is in the TRACKER and Rachel Blackmore is an interesting booking as this horse really needs 3 miles but stamina will be an asset if they don't go too quickly early on and the horse can remain in contention and interested and a smaller bet on Quite Incredible who looks over priced and may be one to follow in the coming months. 
 
Tips (1) Butty O'Brien / (2) Clonbury Hill / (3s) Benkei / (4s if you wish Quite Incredible)
