Galway Races Day 6

Irish Stallion Farms E.B.F. Nursery Handicap (2YO only) (3.30) - Tommy Stack has won 2 of the last 4 runnings of this race and is taken to enhance that record with CAMBINA (win), who may well improve again from her maiden win and has been handed a useful racing weight courtesy of the 10lbs rise for Suntan following her maiden. Dermot Weld’s gelding McMongale has improved in each of his three appearances so far and an initial mark of 75 looks fairly lenient. Act Of Love is another that warrants respect following her convincing win at Down Royal.

Low Low Handicap (3YO plus) (4.00) - It’s going to take a lot to stop Ask Jack from following up his decisive win in the Galway Mile, and a 5lbs penalty could look lenient should he go in the same style again. BROAD MEANING (win) is one from one at this venue and cannot be overlooked in first time headgear, having been pretty highly tried.

Dawn Juice E.B.F. Maiden (2YO only) (4.30) - ENCHANTED FOREST (win) caught the eye when second on debut at Gowran Park and had to settle for the silver medal more recently at Naas but should play a major part here.

Cheestrings Handicap (50-70) (4YO plus) (5.00) - An uninspiring race where the closely matched LOUGH FERRIB and LUIS LA NOCHE both have decent each/way chances in an open contest.
Kerrymaid Festival Flat Race (4YO to 7YO) (5.30) - Willie Mullins is normally one to follow in bumper company and his representative ANDERSON MCAULEY (win) should be there or thereabouts and while he’s no certainty, he should take a hand in the finish.
