- Review navan 5th Oct
Review navan 5th Oct
< Kissed lived up to her impeccable pedigree with a taking debut victory at Navan.
The Aidan O'Brien-trained three-parts sister to this year's Derby hero Pour Moi was sent off a heavily-supported 6-4 favourite under Joseph O'Brien and she belied her inexperience to get the better of once-raced rival Violet Lashes
The pair had it between them from the two-marker and despite showing clear signs of greenness, Kissed was much the best and emerged a length and a half to the good.
Galway Hurdle disappointment Hidden Universe got back on track in the October Maiden.
Dermot Weld's classy novice hurdler (9-4 favourite) returned to the Flat for the first time since last October and didn't let down his supporters.< Chaperoned and Louisville Lip were both arguably travelling better two furlongs out but the winner responded well to Pat Smullen's urgings, going on to beat the former by two and three-quarter lengths.< Balmont Mast justified 7-2 favouritism in the opening Kells Maiden.
Colm O'Donoghue tracked long-time leader The Munster Maori on Edward Lynam's gedling before sending him to the front inside the final furlong.
He won by a comfortable length and three quarters from the running-on Judies Child
Lynam doubled up when Quote Of The Day made light work of the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Maiden under Chris Hayes.
The 9-1 chance took it up turning in and slammed Casual Creeper by seven lengths.
Samantha Bell also left it late when guiding Amour Fou home in front in the Derrinstown Stud Apprentice Handicap.
However, the gap came at the perfect time for Bill Farrell's filly, who burst to the front under a confident Bell and beat Wellmarked by half a length at odds of 12/1.
Charles O'Brien's Tupelo Honey (6-1) took the Meath Handicap under Johnny Murtagh, while Murtagh notched his second winner of the afternoon on John Oxx's Tugboat (2-1 favourite) in the concluding Irish Stallion Farms EBF Maiden.
