Jessica Harrington has trained 35 Galway festival winners so it is always worth keeping an eye on her contenders.

Harrington spoke to BOYLEsports earlier and revealed which of tonight's runners has a decent each-way chance and which contenders may prefer softer conditions. See BOYLEsports Galway Festival Odds.

Daary, 7f. Flat Maiden, 6.10

I hope he'll run a big race this evening. He's drawn one which will help. But Aidan's [O'Brien's] one will probably be very hard to beat.

Riviera Queen, 2m. 179yds. Flat Handicap, 6.40

I hope we get a bit more rain. She's got a nice weight and she'll stay every yard of the two miles. She has an each way chance.

Fiona Maccoul, 7f Clayton Hotel Galway Handicap, 7.15

Again, I need rain. She might not run unless they get a bit of rain. Twice she’s run on ground too quick for her. She's a proper soft ground horse. We just haven't had any luck with her this year.

Dun An Oir, 1m. 4f. 84yds, 7.50

He's an outsider. He didn't run well last time out. The ground was a bit too quick for him. And I'm hoping again the easier ground will help him.
