Racing Chat - Sunday 22nd Nov 2020

[The Brigadier]

There’s some interesting racing on Sunday on both sides of the Irish Sea. 

All eyes at Cork will be on APPRECIATE IT (12.55) on his hurdling debut. A top class bumper performer of Willie Mullins’ last season he went of 15/8 favourite for the Supreme Hurdle at Cheltenham when finding only stable mate and Fridays winner Ferny Hollow too good for him. He has nothing of that calibre to beat here and should win easily though as always it will be interesting to see how well he can hurdle. 

Navan feature the Grade 3 Monksfield Novice Hurdle with some highly promising novices from the big Irish yards in attendance. None more so than Gordon Elliot’s FAROUK D’ALENE  (12.10) who is unbeaten in an Irish point, two bumpers and a novice hurdle. This is his sternest test but I feel he can come through and put himself right up there with the best novices around so far seen this season. 

FAROUK D’ALENE 2 point win @ 13/8 william hill 

The other Graded race at Navan looks an easy assignment for last years RSA runner up MINELLA INDO – an easy winner at Wexford last time and only three opponents to face who are 13lb and upwards inferior to him. Like Appreciate It at Cork he will be at prohibitive odds.
