A busy week which culminates in Irish Champions Weekend begins on Monday with 8 races at Galway where the feature is the 5.05 when 7 start the Deacy Gilligan Hurdle. Here it's hard to look past Jazzaway who after winning at Punchestown in April picked up her career best victory in a handicap hurdle on this course 38 days ago. With more to come she should definitely get her hat-trick win. Thosedaysaregone is a useful hurdler who's only win this year came at Dundalk in March,he must enter calculations after a good 4th in a hurdle at Down Royal 10 days ago making him the main challenger. The other on the shortlist is Magiloney who picked up a victory here in July,despite being pulled up over fences since he should do better in this race back over smaller obstacles. Quirt Evans has 2 wins from 5 runs this season and arrives here after a very good 3rd in a novice hurdle at Killarney 17 days ago and he should go close again. Of the rest the only one with a chance is Holymacapony he was last seen finishing 8th behind Gaillard Du Mesnil at Leopardstown 7 months ago but shouldn't be overlooked on his return.
Big race prediction: 7: Jazzaway.
