Navan 3:14 Result

This is a modest maiden and This That stands out as the only runner with a proper official rating (78) and a form line featuring a solid 4th on debut and a 9-length beaten runner-up effort last time in a much stronger race, both at this trip. G M Lyons and Colin Keane is a strong combination, and the fact this colt already carries an OR while all rivals are unrated suggests he's already shown more ability on the clock/ratings than this field. Leadlight (J P O'Brien, first-time cheekpieces) and Jezzie Bea (Harrington yard, in-form) are the market rivals, but neither has the demonstrated substance This That has shown facing better company. Equus Victor's 54 form is unconvincing, and the rest (Summer Sent You, Ferronniere, Mickian Thomas) are unproven or have shown nothing to date. This That looks the most exposed to further improvement and fits the step up to a mile well given his pedigree (Sergei Prokofiev / Showcasing damsire, stamina influences on both sides). He looks the best current form and profile in this race, and represents a solid, sensibly-priced win bet rather than a speculative outsider.
