Troytown Handicap Chase tips and runner-by-runner guide to Navan 2.30pm race on Sunday

Gordon Elliott saddles 15 of the 22 runners in the Troytown Handicap Chase at Navan on Sunday.

The stable’s number one jockey, Jack Kennedy, has opted to ride 2021 winner Run Wild Fred, who was last seen finishing fifth behind stablemate Gevrey in the Munster National last month. Galway Plate third Hollow Games and last season’s Thyestes second Dunboyne are among Elliott’s other leading contenders.

Troytown Handicap Chase verdict

Timeform: Gordon Elliott saddles over half the field here and his well-weighted HOLLOW GAMES is fancied to lead his mighty contingent home on the back of his promising Galway third. Stablemate Run Wild Fred can boast a C&D win and is next on the list ahead of other Elliott inmates in the shape of Gevrey, Coko Beach and Tullybeg.
