Oscars back in Business

Oscars Business bounced back to form when staying on stoutly in the closing stages to claim the Prancer and Dancer Handicap Chase at Navan.
Philip Enright produced the mare to challenge at the third last and she kicked on before the next.
Robert Tyner's charge galloped on strongly in the closing stages to record a four-and-a-quarter length success over Jupitor
The winner was sent off 8/1 after attracting support this morning from 10/1 into 11/2. She was dropping back in trip having contested marathon events on her last two outings.
“She just wasn't herself for a long time but I was pleased with her run in the Cork national as she had no prep and ran well to three out,” said Tyner.
“I thought it might not be soft enough for her. Ideally she wants three miles but she can get away with two-and-a-half around here.
“Philip gave her a beautiful ride and she jumped like a buck. She might go for the 3m1f handicap at Fairyhouse on New Year's Day.”
Golden Ticket was sent off the 2/1 favourite under Tony McCoy but couldn't pick up in the straight and finished last of the ten finishers.
