Direct Bearing to benefit from a drop in class

TAKE a chance on Direct Bearing leading his rivals a merry dance in the Senator Novice Chase at Navan this afternoon.

Dermot Weld’s charge has cut little ice in his latest two outings, behind Pizarro at Leopardstown and Kicking King at Leopardstown, but down in grade should go close!

This versatile sort got off the mark over fences at Leopardstown at Christmas, producing a fine display of jumping and front-running to beat the ordinary Munster an easy seven lengths.
