Layers divided over Snowy’s Cheltenham prospects

RUBY WALSH was the man to follow at Navan yesterday, notching a big-race double with Young Desperado and Snowy Morning.

The Ladbrokes.com Ten Up Novice Chase was dominated by Hear The Echo and Romek for much of the three-mile trip, with Walsh happy to take up a watching brief in behind aboard 100-30 shot Snowy Morning.

Turning for home it was a four-horse race with favourite Gazza’s Girl also launching her challenge, but Hear The Echo was the first to crack when taking a heavy fall at the third-last.
