In depth

Verdict

ELEUTHERA (NAP) is in such good form that he's likely to take some beating. A winner over this trip at Naas early last month, he found 5f at Navan just too short on Thursday and can get back on the winning trail. Edessann was having his first start for new connections when attempting to make all at Navan last month and will be better for the run while Blastofmagic won on the latter track last month and has performed with credit from his higher mark. Crystal Dawn was having his first start for Gavin Cromwell when well supported at Fairyhouse last month but didn't quite get the run of the race so can get into the frame.
