Bank on Capri proving his class in the Navan feature

The feature Group 3 Vintage Crop Stakes, won by some of the best stayers of the modern era, Holy Orders, Yeats and Fame And Glory, is likely to centre around two smart Ballydoyle inmates Capri and Southern France.

Former Irish Derby and St Leger winner Capri should be able to hold off the challenge of his lesser exposed stablemate, though.

After winning on debut last season, Capri suffered an interrupted campaign and never really took flight in the latter part of the season. He remains a potentially classy stayer and sets the standard.

It has been an uncharacteristically quick start to the season for the Ballydoyle juveniles which makes Tango immediately interesting in the opening maiden. The Jim Bolger-trained Feminista has had the benefit of a run and is worth including as well.

Little Clarinet should be capable of winning races for Joseph O'Brien this season, beginning in the sprint handicap (2.35), a race in which May Remain and Lewandowski also appeal.

The Irish Rover brings solid credentials to the table for the Committed Stakes (3.10) while Pink Dogwood and Trethias can battle it out for Salsabil Stakes (3.40) glory.

Third World, who has been blinkered for the first time, and King's Vow, who also sports headgear, have to be respected in the final leg, the 1m2f handicap (4.35).
