A brilliant Wednesday saw both my picks win at Navan. In the 3.00 Rough Diamond tracked the leaders sitting 3rd two out. He led inside the final furlong staying on well to beat Princess Sela by 1/2 a length. The 4.10 saw Maristella have a poor start but recover to sit 3rd at halfway. The 9/4 joint favourite was 2nd with 100 yards to go keeping on well under pressure to lead close to home, he beat Prioritise by a short head.
Thurles stages seven races on Thursday with two features.
2.00: Irish Stallion Farms EBF Fillies Maiden.
1: Delightful: A good filly who took a step forward from her debut when 3rd at Gowran Park 19 days ago. She definitely has better days ahead of her and she is well-bred from a top yard. She will improve further here giving her the nod.
2.35: Irish EBF Auction Series Maiden.
3: Timely Boost: A horse on debut who comes from a good family. He is a brother to Coeur D'Amour and half-brother to several interesting winners including Rosasora and Imperioso. He comes from a yard who have had some decent horses recently and with Billy Lee on board he is just the pick to beat the ones with experience here.
