GALWAY FESTIVAL 2013. DAY TWO -- TUESDAY 30th JULY

TUESDAY 30th JULY
DAY TWO

First day started well and then we had a few near misses sadly still Rome wasn't built in a day. 

Onwards to day two, as we stand there are five selections but DIPLOMAT won yesterday and is declared again in the opening contest so will have to wait to see if he actually runs. 

B/f loss -1.725 points from Day One.

17:05 -- 2m - Diplomat (USA) 3rd 11/4

18:10 -- 7f -  Tarfasha (IRE) WON 2/5

18:45 -- 1m 100y -  Tandem 8th 11/4

19:15 -- 7f -  Pirate Cove (IRE) 7th 9/10

20:15 -- 2m -  Dancers Dilemma (IRE) 2nd 5/1


A poor return on Tuesday one skinny priced winner and four losers, losing 3.6 points on the day. So we move quickly onto Wednesday's card and pray that the racing gods grant us favour and a quick turnaround in our fortunes. 

Be lucky

GALWAY FESTIVAL 2013. DAY ONE -- MONDAY 29th JULY

DAY ONE MONDAY 29th JULY

Our annual trip to Ireland for the Dermot Weld benefit meeting otherwise known as the Galway Festival. 

We will be following the progress of Mr Weld's horses all week and expect most of them to be well supported even so we've made a profit on each year we've followed him so I trust this year will prove to be just as fruitful. 

The meeting kicks off at 5.10pm tonight, here's what the maestro has in store for us on Day 1.



17:10 -- 2m - Diplomat (USA)  WON 9/10F

18:10 -- 7f - Mustajeeb  WON 11/8JF

18:45 -- 2m - Notable Graduate (IRE) 14th 5/1

19:15 -- 7f - Peace Accord 15th 11/2

19:45 -- 1m 4f - Pay Day Kitten (USA) 2nd 11/4

20:15 -- 2m - Marty's Magic (IRE) 2nd 5/4

Day 1 ends -1.725 to level stakes SP.

Good start to the meeting but fell away soon after, never mind there is always tomorrow. 

We're here all week lets hope the money lasts as long as the Guinness

All the best to you.

An interesting afternoon which saw us lose a few points on the win side of things but the place markets were our friend and some of the longer priced horses also ran well albeit just out of the frame. 

Still life in this system and we'll have a busy week now as it's Galway festival kicking off today and then the next meeting here which will be held on Wednesday 7th August.
