Weekend NAP - February 15th

Leopardstown 4.25 - Agus A Vic

Agus A Vic has been just about the best hunter chaser in Ireland in the last two year - his form figures in Irish hunter chases read an impressive:212111B - and he remains open to plenty of improvement. Not without a quirk or two, he rarely wins by much but this certainly helps his price and a tissue price of 100/30 significantly underrates his chance tomorrow. He put up a career best in this race last term and with the ground to suit, a similar performance can be expected.
The appearance of Carronhills in the declarations is something of a boon; he may be a rising star of the Irish hunter scene but the form of his win last time, beating a twicer and a pensioner, is dubious and the presence of Nina Carberry on top will see him sent off at restrictive odds.
