Navan Race 1 - Navan Racing Festival 15Th & 16Th November Median Auction Maiden
WHITE SMOKE (16) after switching to the Michael Grassick stable was only beaten 0.5L in a 1200m maiden at the Curragh eleven days ago. The two-year-old improved on each of her three starts to date and rates a serious player. PLINY (6) could enjoy this easier assignment after finishing fifth at Down Royal in latest. Blinkers fitted for the first time and open to further progress rates highly. OCEAN'S BREATH (2) is a filly making her debut here for the Ger Lyons stable. Worth a glance in the betting and looks interesting. KINDERGARTEN (7) and DREAM AND BELIEVE (5) are two other newcomers deserving a watch in the market.

Jumped as a despised roughie at debut, ran last of 13 at Dundalk All Weather on September 26 over 1408m, 26 len behind Yellowstone Lake carrying 58kg at $201. Doubt she will trouble these.
