Remove zebra stripe from certain rows

Question

I have a table that I currently do zebra striping on with the rows, even and odd which works fine. My problem is that I also have a class that is used to indicate the new rows which a different color style. It seems that this new class is being over thrown by the zebra stripe CSS, is there a way around this? Any tips or suggestions appreciated, thanks.

Here is a bit of CSS that controls this table

   #table tbody tr:nth-child(odd){
    background-color: #cccccc; color:black;
     }
   #table tbody tr:nth-child(even){
   background: #EBEBEB; color: #7D7D7D;
    }
   #table tbody tr:nth-child(2n+1):hover{
        cursor:pointer;
        /* add gradient */
        background-color: #808080;
        background: -webkit-gradient(linear, left top, left bottom, from(#909090), to(#606060));
        background: -moz-linear-gradient(top, #909090, #606060);
        color: #dadada;
        font-weight: ;
    }
  #table tbody tr:nth-child(2n):hover{
        cursor:pointer;
        /* add gradient */
        background-color: #808080;
        background: -webkit-gradient(linear, left top, left bottom, from(#909090),        to(#606060));
        background: -moz-linear-gradient(top, #909090, #606060);
        color: #dadada;

    }
  .new {
    background-color: #760086;
    color:white;
       }

If you put the CSS for the zebra-stripping rows before the codes for the newly created elements, then it should be just fine:

p:nth-child(2n+1){
    /*blah*/
}
p:nth-child(2n){
    /*blah*/
}
p.new{
    /*blah*/
}
