Galway Race 3 - Connolly's Red Mills Irish Ebf Auction & Median Mdn Hurdle
JURY TIME (9) Racing fresh after a 32 week break. Ran 3rd last start at Limerick and promising career start. Hard to overlook. COOLISHAEL (1) Nice run when 2nd last time in a hurdle at Listowel and showing consistent performance in races. Should jump out and bowl along. One of the major hopes. GIVE IT A CRACK (8) Tidy effort when 3rd last run in a hurdle at Listowel and was a debutant last start. Must respect in this event. IF YOU BELIEVE (4) Resumes after a spell of 50 weeks. Narrowly denied victory last time in a hurdle at Clonmel. Can surprise and by no means out of it.

Amongst the placegetters when 2nd last time in a hurdle at Listowel and honest performer putting a tidy record together. Should be going forward early. Good winning chance.

Started at $126.00 and came in 4th last time in a hurdle at Cork and down in trip. Might have to make up considerable ground. Entitled to be big odds.

Resuming after a spell of 32 weeks. Competitive effort when 3rd last start at Limerick on a heavy rated track and putting a tidy record together. Very capable of taking this out.

Tidy effort when 3rd last run at Gowran Park. Won't be far away during the run. Has run into the money 2 from 2 attempts this preparation. Marginal chance.

Back from a 43 week break. Failed to finish in a hurdle at Limerick but having second career run. Anna Mcguinness takes a large claim. Hard to see this being competitive today.
