Reportedly backed in from as big as 9/2 this morning, 13/8 favourite Hazariban landed the punt in the Follow @NavanRacecourse On Twitter Handicap.

Doubtless those 'on' Seamus Fahey's charge were toasting Shane Foley who got the market-leader up from an unlikely looking position.

He 'pipped' Chill Benkei and Banker Burke by a head, a nose and a neck.

It wasn't surprising to hear Fahey exclaim: "It was a bit of a heart stopper.

"Shane said he didn't get the clearest of runs but when the gap came he fought all the way and had a very willing partner. He was in front at the right point.

"We're not sure where we'll go, we'll discuss it with Aidan and Sally (Dempsey, winning owners) but he could go to Cork for a handicap hurdle. Other than that he could go to Punchestown." (GC & EM)
