He certainly did Go All The Way Go All The Way did it the hard way from the front and fended off Rear View to win the opening two and a half mile maiden hurdle at Navan. Andrew Lynch popped him out in front from flagfall but the pair were unable to shake off Rear View and Robbie Power who closed two out and moved into a challenging position at the last. The pair pulled well clear of the remainder with Go All The Way boxing on to win by a length and a quarter at odds of 7/2. He didn’t go unbacked having been 5/1 in the morning. The runner-up was returned at 11/4 while 9/4 favourite King Of The Refs came home third a further 19 lengths back. Winning trainer Jim Dreaper said: “He fractured his pelvis last summer so Its nice that he has come right eventually. “He could go to Fairyhouse or Punchestown.” Market vibes were uneasy about Stowree Bud, who opened 2/1 this morning but drifted right out to 4/1 on the off. He never landed a blow being eased and virtually pulled up in the run-in to come home last of the seven finishers. Michael Graham
