Review navan 20th May

< Naughty Or Nice led the boys home in the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Yeats Stakes, the feature race at Navan on Saturday.

A nice winner at Gowran first time out, the only filly in the field moved smoothly into the lead two furlongs out as she took over from Belgravia the 11-10 favourite who lost all chance when short of room a furlong from home.

John Oxx's representative kicked clear at that point and the 4-1 shot went on to make it two from two in the Listed contest, despite Grandee finishing strongly to reduce the deficit to just a head.

A 231-day absence proved no hindrance for Celebration as he made a winning return in the navanracecourse.ie Handicap.

Colin Keane's mount travelled well before taking it up from Miss Power over a furlong out and although the latter battled back in game fashion, the 7-2 chance held on by half a length to make a winning debut for Ger Lyons.< Guessthebill was sent off a 2-5 favourite for the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Maiden and justified those odds in comfortable fashion.

Johnny Murtagh's charge, who finished a promising second on his debut at Naas last month, picked up well when asked by Pat Smullen and came home a length and a quarter clear of Himmah < Remarkable Lady sprang a surprise in the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Fillies Handicap as the 16-1 chance came from off the pace to record a four-length success over Honor Oak in the hands of 7lb claimer Sean Davis.< Dierama (6-1) flew home to take the opening Irish Stallion Farms EBF Maiden for Eddie Lynam.

Wayne Lordan's mount looked an unlikely winner towards the rear a couple of furlongs out but took off late on and weaved his way through the crowd to deny Snowstar by half a length.< Twin Star (6-1) powered home down the outside to deny the trailblazing Clongowes by a length and three-quarters in the Matthews Agri Maiden, while Veneer Of Charm proved a length and three-quarters too good for Less Of That in the navanadventuresports.ie And Multiactivity Park Handicap.
