Navan Race 8 - Bar 1 Betting 'Best Odds Guaranteed Overnight' Flat Race
EL PARAISO (3) represents a yard with eleven from twelve placing in National Hunt flat races this season. Dam won one and rates a strong chance for the perfect start. DOUBLE HELIX (2) is notably ridden by leading amateur jockey of Ireland. Being a half brother to a talented flat horse may mean he has the necessary speed. Interesting debutant with chances. EMERGENCY MAN (4) ran smartly on racecourse debut at Killarney. Didn't quite build on that last time over the same course and distance though beaten by experienced horses. Sets a good standard and will surely be competitive. SIERRA'S DREAM (14) shaped with promise at Wexford when fourth behind fancied rivals. Could improve for the run and holds each way claims.
