Forget Goodwood, next week's serious action is at Galway.
Airlie Beach has an entry for the Hurdle so I've looked up a few 10 year stats for the winners which I'm happy to share.
10/10 previously won a hurdle over 2m or 2m1f.
9/10 aged 6 or 7. The exception was Clondaw Warrior last year aged 9.
9/10 rated 130 to 145. The exception rated 120.
9/10 carried 10-4 to 11-6. The exception carried 9-10.
Number of days since previous run ranged from 3 to 87 and, interestingly, 7 had their previous run on the flat.
6/10 had won a handicap hurdle previously. Of the other 4, 2 were having their first run in a handicap hurdle.
8/10 started at 7/1 or less although only 3 started favourite.
