With no racing in Britain today due to the recent heavy rain, Tony McCoy has made the trip over to take two mounts at Navan this afternoon.

The multiple champion rides the Eddie Harty-trained Like Your Style in the featured Ladbrokes Troytown Handicap Chase, and he also wears the colours of J P McManus in the following beginners chase aboard Alderwood

Mark Walsh was due to ride both horses.

The meeting only got the go-ahead after an early morning inspection, with the going set to be extremely testing.

The fourth last fence and the last fence will both be omitted due to ground conditions.
