The prospects for Navan tomorrow are first dependant on it passing an inspection today but if the meeting goes ahead, then Our Meg looks the one to get punters off to a good start.
Those chances depend on the 9.00 inspection in the morning because a severe frost forecast for tonight could also play havoc.
A spokesman for the track said yesterday: "At the moment the conditions are improving and we'll know more after the morning inspection. But we are also being told that frost may be slow to clear on Sunday morning." Our Meg was surprisingly beaten by Beepers Gale at Clonmel last time out but considering Beepers Gale then went on to win at Naas last weekend, maybe it wasn't such a surprise in hindsight.
Throw that effort in with Our Meg's previous race when a non-staying third at Punchestown and she should find the trip and the testing ground perfect - if getting the opportunity to run.
The second division of the maiden hurdle can fall to the in-form Charlie Swan stable. The reigning champion jockey will saddle Bridge Street for this and there should be substantial improvement in store on this horse's jumping debut behind Colonel Yaeger at Cork.
The Proudstown Handicap is the most valuable race on the card and Frank Berry's Marchaway can follow up an impressive Punchestown success last time out while Roses Of Picardy is the selection in the stamina sapping novices hurdle.
