Horse Racing Tips: Timeform's three best bets at Navan on Saturday

Zaffy's Pride - 13:50 Navan

There was plenty to like about Zaffy's Pride's opening runner-up effort at Dundalk three weeks ago and she's selected to go one better with improvement on the cards. Watercolormemories showed plenty when fourth in a big field at Leopardstown and may provide the chief threat ahead of Gavin Cromwell's Giselles Thunder, who returns to the scene of her debut second.

Coulthard - 15:30 Navan

Coulthard ran to a very useful level when third in Group 3 company at the Curragh last week, seeming to excel himself up in grade while still looking green, and a repeat of that form will likely be enough, although it's worth bearing in mind that Lipizzaner was second favourite at Royal Ascot when last seen so is evidently well regarded by the Aidan O'Brien team.

Independent Missy - 16:05 Navan

Independent Missy has been given a chance by the handicapper and could resume winning ways tackling five furlongs for the first time. She was beaten only by a well-treated sort at Cork last time and showed plenty of speed on that occasion too, so there is plenty in her favour. There won't be much between Cork 1-2 and stablemates Ardhoomey and My Laureate again, while A Step Too Far continues to progress and has a big shout bidding for a four-timer.
