'Andy Slattery’s horses have been in good nick' - Our team's Galway tips

Our team of Vincent Finegan, Emma Nagle and Johnny Ward offer up their tips for the rest of the week at Galway Races revealed on our Preview show.

Vincent tipped up Strong Link at 6-1 to win ahead of Thursday's novice hurdle and has two more confident selections on Saturday.

Johnny Ward’s Friday Tip

Cloud Seeker, Guinness Handicap, 6.35 Galway

Cloud Seeker is going well, he was second to Fleetfoot the last day at the Curragh who will reoppose, that was a very solid effort. He's a good progressive horse. Andy Slattery’s horses have been in good nick.

Vincent Finegan’s Saturday Tips

Reidh, Ardilaun Hotel Handicap, 5.35 Galway

Richard Fahey got a great kick out of winning with this horse at Galway last year for his Mayo owner and it looks like everything is set for a repeat raid in the west of Ireland.

Reidh hasn't won since his victory at the festival last season, but showed more of his old sparkle at Catterick last time and with Oisin Orr back in the saddle he has every chance of winning again.

He races off a rating 9lbs lower than the one he won off here last year.

Oriole, McDonogh Capital Investments Handicap, 6.05 Galway

Oriole won this race comfortably last year when trained by Natalia Lupini. The mare has now switched to Mark Fahey, but is still owned by a syndicate that includes Dylan Browne McMonagle's father.

Browne McMonagle rides Oriole again and off a 1lb lower mark than last year a big run looks assured.

Emma Nagle’s Sunday Selection

Love Billy Boy, Ahonoora Handicap, 4.00 Galway

A horse who's been rapidly improving this year. He's gone from a mark of 87 up to 96 and definitely has a little bit more to give off a mark of 96.

This seven furlong trip might be his optimal.
