Super Sunday for jump and flat racing
Claire Barry



JUMP racing fans are well catered for with some competitive action at Limerick this afternoon, while their flat counterparts will be heading in the opposite direction to Navan for an equally entertaining eight race card.

The feature event in Meath is the Ennistown Stud EBF Salsabil Stakes, while the main attraction at Limerick is the Grade 3 Hugh McMahon Memorial Novice Chase for which recent scorer Laetitia will be a warm order.

Anna Pavlova is the sole English challenger for the Salsabil Stakes and she has claims on the form she showed at the end of last season. The trip and the ground should not pose problems for Paul Hanagan's mount.

Jessica Harrington's Tartouche has form that ties in closely with Anna Pavolva and must be considered along with Princess Nala, but Anna Pavlova is fancied to win out.

Richard Fahey and Hanagan are represented by Glencairn Star in the Nightclub Promotion 18-30 Club Handicap and the six-year-old may be good enough to oblige.

In the Tattersalls (Ireland) Auction Maiden it is difficult to look beyond the Kevin Prendergast-trained Scupio who was coming to win his race at the Curragh last Sunday when he cocked his jaw and blew his chance in the closing stages.

Champion trainer Aidan O'Brien gave a favourable mention to Acapulco at his recent press open day and the colt won't be lacking support when he goes to post for the five runner www. navanracecourse. ie race.
