Bazaar blitzes opposition Bazaar turned the second division of the Meath Handicap at Navan into a procession when running out an impressive winner. The Galileo colt was sent off 4/1 favourite (from 5/1) in the ten furlong contest and cruised into the lead coming down the hill in the straight. Aidan O'Brien's charge was driven out to go clear over a furlong from home and could afford to ease down in the closing stages to post a five-length success. The winner had been a touch unlucky when denied a clear run on his handicap debut at Killarney in August. “He's a laid back horse and seems to be better on the track. He surprised me a bit today and I'd imagine he'll get a mile-and-a-half,” said the winning rider Joseph O'Brien. The winner got hampered in the closing stages on his last run and O'Brien explained:- “The last day he was slowly away. I was on the inside and they went slow.” (Additional reporting by Alan Magee)
