Bua Boy has come in for plenty of market support for the Guinness Galway Tribes Handicap Hurdle which goes to post at 5:00 this evening.

The Denis Hogan trained gelding was successful at the Festival twelve months ago, landing a significant gamble in the process.

Having finished down the field on his most recent start at Naas in February, the son of Doyen was initially priced up at 33/1, but is now available at just 15/2.

Hogan's Funky Dady gets in as first reserve in the Guinness Galway Blazers Handicap Chase and this one has also been supported from 10s to 7s.

Elsewhere on the card, Hallowed Star has been the focus of attention in the Adare Manor Opportunity Handicap Hurdle (4:30).

Available at 5/1 in early shows, the John Hanlon trained top-weight is now as short as 15/8. Decor Irlandais (16s to 15/2) has also come in for some support in the Grade B Guinness Handicap Hurdle, while it's all about Ashroe Diamond in the concluding Hop House 13 (Pro/Am) INH Flat Race, with this one now trading at 4/5 from evens.
