Paul Ferguson has one selection for us on Monday; Le Richebourg in the Galway 17:20. Compare odds and bet.
Weekend Offender would be of interest at Ayr this afternoon, if the ground isn’t too soft, with the step up in trip likely to suit.
The forecast doesn’t look too promising, however, so the day’s sole selection goes the way of LE RICHEBOURG (5:20) in the opening race of the Galway Festival.
His bumper form is very strong and he’s done little wrong in winning both starts over hurdles at Killarney.
Expected to be given a break after his most recent win – surely good enough to make his mark later during the season – the likely soft ground has presumably made connections have a change of heart. With the Joseph O’Brien yard in such good form, he can complete the hat-trick despite the rise in class.
Monday’s selection:
5:20 Galway – Le Richebourg; 11/8 betfred
