The week got off to a decent start at Tipperary, in the 4.05 Motown Maggie was 3rd. The 3/1 shot led early but was passed two out. She soon came under pressure making a slight mistake at the last. She kept on at one pace allowing So Scottish to win by 7 lengths. The next saw Union Park come 2nd. The 9/2 chance was at the rear after a mistake five out. He made progress soon after sitting 4th 2 out. He stayed on in 3rd and was left in 2nd after two fell at the last. He kept on at the same pace on the run-in with Good As Hell winning by 2 3/4 lengths.
Tuesday sees a seven race card at Galway where two stand out.
3.00: Mongey Communications Chase.
2: Jon Snow: A useful hurdler who opened his chasing account at Killarney 46 days ago. He was a comfortable 2 1/2 lengths in front there and with more to come he can build on that run here and confirm his promise in this sphere.
4.10: Guinness Handicap Chase.
4: Gevrey: A decent horse who picked up his latest win at Fairyhouse in April. He was last seen finishing a good fourth at Perth 2 weeks ago in a race where he wasn't disgraced. He goes back down in trip here which shouldn't be a problem and this versatile chaser has to be taken seriously. He just gets the nod in a tricky-looking contest to predict.
