Race preview
NAVIGATOR JACK was able to take a lead in the first-time hood at Fairyhouse and didn't run badly at all in third. It is worth noting that the last time he encountered testing ground, he won at Listowel in June. Our Bobby is running consistently and obliged by six lengths on rain-softened ground at this track in June. Laser Focus is likely to be popular on the back of a neck second in Tramore. He wouldn't need much more to make the breakthrough, although this will be the slowest ground he has faced. Missiee has been off since April, but is a definite mudlark and knows how to win on this ground. This is a big drop in trip, though.
