3/8/25 Galway

 The best on a poor Saturday at Galway came from Last Kingdom who was 7th in a race won by Come On The Lads who beat Toll Stone by a head. The days other pick So Scottish was 12th with the contest going to Winning Smut who beat Fascile Mode by 2 1/4 lengths. 

 The festival at Galway reaches it’s conclusion on Sunday with 8 races and 2 highlights. 

3.30: Lord Hemphill Memorial Handicap Chase. 

4: Arctic Fly: A good horse who returned after 8 months off to pick up a career best win at Tipperary 33 days ago. Despite being short of room 2 out she made progress to challenge before the last, she led on the run-in keeping on well and coming home by 1 3/4 lengths. She has to contend with a weight rise here but can follow up. 

4.00: Irish Stallion Farms EBF Ahonoora Handicap. 

3: Dunum: A horse who enjoys running here including a win and a 3rd in the last two runnings of this race. He won again on this course just five days ago leading early and despite being strongly pressed he held on to win by a head. The quick turnaround shouldn't be a problem and he can pick up an 8th career win.
