If I thought Thursday was bad then Friday was even worse for my picks at Galway. In the 6.00 Spades Are Trumps was 13th, the 16/1 shot was always at the rear and made a mistake 4 out. He made no impression from 2 out while upfront Gabbys Cross won the race beating Busselton by 2 1/4 lengths. It wasn't any better in the 6.35 where Ruler Legend finished 15th. The 7/2 favourite was 4th at halfway disputing the lead from 4 out. He was passed 2 out soon having no extra. Sionnach Eile won the race by 6 1/2 lengths.
It's the penultimate day of the Galway Summer festival on Saturday with two more contests standing out.
2.30: Boylesports Handicap Hurdle.
14: La Prima Donna: A promising horse who won without any fuss at Tipperary 72 days ago. She came home by 4 3/4 lengths but has better to come now upped in trip and back in handicap company.
4.15: Gra Chocolates Irish EBF Nursery Handicap.
1: Congo River: Was a good third in a maiden at Listowel when last seen 55 days ago. That was only his second run and he makes his handicap debut here. Coming from the yard of Aidan O’Brien he is a big player who can get off the mark by taking this contest.
