Galway Race 8 - Fr. Breen Memorial (Pro/Am) Flat Race
LINFORD (2) Won with a leg in the air by 5 1/2L last time at Roscommon and taking on a lower class of opponents. Has to be strongly considered. CAISLEAN GEAR (4) Solid effort when winning by 1 1/2L last start at Killarney and drops back to a suitable grade. Showing great form this campaign and promising career start. Should be competitive in this race at a bit of odds. MINDYOURHEADMIKE (3) First up from a spell. Won with a leg in the air by 3 1/4L last run at Clonmel and dropping in grade. Not out of this. THE TWO MARY'S (7) Initial race appearance 4yo by Affinisea for J J Hanlon. Watch the betting.

Kicked clear when winning by 3 1/4L last time at Killarney and back in an easier grade. Aine Connolly is a key booking. Highly unlikely to feature here.

Made a mess of them when winning by a margin of 5 1/2L last time at Roscommon and goes down in class. Major chance.

Back from a break. Gave nothing else a chance when winning by 3 1/4L last run at Clonmel and up against a less competitive field. Can feature in this event.

Left nothing to chance when winning by 1 1/2L last start at Killarney and competing in a less challenging grade. Tracking very well this preparation and good career start. Can win this.

Odds of $12.00 and finished 8th last start at Roscommon but was a debutant last start. Competing in a lower grade. Dropping weight. Overlook from a betting angle.

4yo debutant by Affinisea for J J Hanlon. Betting is the best guide.
