GALWAY FESTIVAL 2015 [JULY 27th -- AUG 2nd] -- DAY THREE


DAY THREE


The Galway festival is off with a bang, first couple of days see's us a little behind on -7.75pts but am slightly ahead over at Goodwood which helps. It's early days ...  

The third day begins a little earlier than the opening fixtures and will begin at 3:00pm with a 2m maiden hurdle, but the feature race this afternoon is the Grade A Galway Plate over 2m 6f which will get underway at 5:30pm. 

As mentioned on day one our recent years have focused on the horses from trainer Dermot Weld and we will continue to track his progress this week though we might also offer one or two other selections in particular the feature races if no Weld runner is declared.

Going -- NH -- Good ; Flat -- Yielding
Weather Forecast -- A high of 16C with a chance of a few showers later as it has been so far this week.  

DAY THREE SELECTIONS;




3:00 -- STUCCODOR [2nd 13/8] 

4:45 -- TIME TO INSPIRE [WON 5/4F]


5:30 -- GALWAY PLATE (2m 6f) No D. Weld horse in the feature race is a slight surprise but we'll be backing RULE THE WORLD today, a runner up in the Irish National and is as effective over the slightly shorter trip. Available around 16/1 so EW shout. [Slipped up? 8/1]

6:40 -- SHAHZEENA [7th 10/1]

7:10 -- NEW AGENDA [4th 4/7F]



Day Three figures -- A near washout today with one short winner and 3 losers for D Weld as well as a calamity in the big race which I've not yet seen the repeat of.

D Weld p/l for week +/- [-7.50]
Overall week p/l to date -- +/- [-10.50]



Summer, Horse Racing, Galway, Irish Women, Guinness = Life IS Good.
Results to update later tonight, and Day Four should be ready by then, not forgetting our other updates this week from the 'Glorious' Goodwood meeting. Have a great week.
