Navan 16:15 - Price Boost

oddschecker Verdict

Runner-up over this distance at the Curragh last time, AVEC GRAND PLAISIR can go one better. A lightly-raced three-year-old, the Jarlath Fahey-trained gelding is only 1lb higher now and can gain a first success. While he will be suited to further in time, this looks a stiff test over a mile and he is well enough treated to go close. Comfort Line, who won that aforementioned Curragh race, is now 2lb worse off with the selection but Sherekiya was only a nose behind Avec Grand Plaisir so has to be feared. Ella's Gold disappointed further back in the field, but had been in decent form prior to that.

Prediction: 1st Avec Grand Plaisir, 2nd Sherekiya, 3rd Ellas Gold
