Couldn’t see a thread, delete this if there is one.

Who are people fancying? Under Control seeing a bit of support today for the hurdle.
 
Hope it's OK to put some of my general thoughts for galway up here.
on monday I really like dont do dramas and truth be told
i know enfranchise is running on monday but i think wednesday over hurdles will be her day
on tuesday i lkie rampage for tom mc court
on wednesday i like fildais for J P Ryan and cave court for noel kelly.
on Saturday I like zeeband
 
Now we're talking!
Backed 3 in the big handicap on Monday :
Lot of Joy 9s
Pinot Gris 14s
Baltic Bird (saver) 50s
Based on some rudimentary trends of rates in the 80s (last 7 and 10/12) and 7yo or younger (19/20).

Lot of Joy was 6th off 96 and 4th off 92 so has form in the race and runs off 88. She was favourite for the cesarewitch on her penultimate start.

Pinot Gris was just behind Lot of Joy at the Curragh and his penultimate flat start was going down a head, conceding 2lbs, to the now 98 rated Eastern Legend.

For the plate, I'm very keen on Perceval Legallois. Will probably have a saver on Let's Go Champ too
 
Enfranchise is the one i am going for in the 7-10 . . Shark Hanlon trained .:onthego: .
 
Hi bigchang the mees are galway owners. I find it a little strange that they are running 3 in that race. The hurdle rating of 123 for enfranchise on Wednesday makes me think that teed up is primed for tomorrow and then hopefully enfranchise for Wednesday
 
Al Gasparo - 4-50 , Booyea - 7-10 , Reidh . - 7-45 . , Patent for me today at galway.
 
Hard to pick winners yesterday and today also looks difficult. I still like rampage in the last
 
Galway Plate looks an Incredible race tomorrow. Impossible to pick the winner though !!
 
Extremely hard to find the winner of the Plate, but I've gone for three against the field:

In Excelsis Deo 7/1
Zanahiyr 10/1
Tullybeg 30/1
 
Lets Go Champ
Pinkerton
Tullybeg

No bet but I'll have those 3 against the field.

Without doubt the most intriguing runner in today's Galway Hurdle is Petrol Head. To say it's had an interesting career so far would be a complete understatement! Looking through it's races there's bits and pieces of back form that stands up and the two summer wins this season have been impressive. Slips in here off bottom weight. If that was the plan then it's a brilliant execution! Found in the market though so the big odds have gone.
 
Small play on Anotherway for me. Getting a stone from the market principles. He seems a bit of a rogue and comes here on the back of three poor runs for various reasons. But if he brings his A game, I think 40.0 on the machine represents a bit of value.
 
OMG.... Petrol Head taken out because of positive dope test winning last time!
Controversial horse or what !!

Was smashed in to fav from 16's last night before being taken out.

Think it's the trainer(s) more than the horse :tranquillity:
