Racing this afternoon at Navan will go ahead after passing an early morning inspection.
A precautionary inspection was called yesterday due to the prospect of freezing temperatures but officials gave the meeting the go ahead after an 8am check.
The seven-race card at Navan features the €50,000 Foxrock Handicap Chase where Acapella Bourgeois carries top-weight against nine rivals in this 2m4f test.
The Network gelding, who joined Willie Mullins over the summer after Sandra Hughes decided to end her training career, fell at around halfway when a hot favourite for the Ladbrokes Troytown Handicap Chase here last month.
Another highlight this afternoon is the Grade 3 Irish Stallion Farms EBF Klairon Davis Novice Chase, while the clash of exciting novices Any Second Now and Invitation Only should also be keenly watched in the Mervyn Gray Construction Beginners Chase.
The action gets underway at 12.20pm.
