Follow the leaders at Galway's curtain call
Claire Barry



THE curtain comes down on Galway's record-breaking seven day festival this afternoon, and the best advice here is to follow those horses, and trainers, with a proven record over the course. Dermot Weld certainly falls into that category, and his Bling It On appeals in the Mercer Hotel EBF Fillies Maiden.

Charlie Swan is another trainer who has had success this week, and a case can be made for his Crooked Throw in the featured Michael McNamara & Co. Builders Dublin & Galway Handicap.

English raider Uhoomagoo, who won the race last year, and Dynamo Dancer, from the in-form Ger Lyons yard, are others who must enter calculations, and likewise the Joanna Morgantrained Orpailleur, who has a good record around Galway.

However, Crooked Throw is running over his favourite trip, and that swings the vote.

Swan is fancied to complete a double courtesy of On The Other Hand in the Cork Airport Hotel Handicap Hurdle, while the Colm Murphytrained A Little Different is tipped to follow up his Killarney win with further success in the Tara Towers Hotel (Pro-Am) INH Flat Race.

Jockey Wayne Lordan picked up a knee injury at Galway, and won't be returning to the saddle until tomorrow. He could miss out on a winner at Cork through Lucky Kyllachy in the Navigation Road Nursery ahead of Musthav.

Aidan O'Brien looks to have found a winning opportunity for Chief Crazy Horse in the Mitchelstown Maiden, while Nathan Jones can continue the good run of luck currently being enjoyed by his trainer Pat Flynn in the corkracecourse. ie Handicap.

Market Minstrel may be good enough to land a competitive-looking Derrinstown Stud Apprentice Handicap.
