It has been a magnificent week of tipping from the irishracing.com team. It is one thing to find winners here and there but at the big festivals in the big handicaps at big prices is where their knowledge and insights have truly paid off this Galway Festival.
Niall Tierney has studied the form in depth and found his idea of a likely winner on Friday.

Friday Galway fancies from Ruby Walsh: ‘I thought he was crying out for this distance’
The three-year-old son of Ghaiyyath has run already this week, finishing third over a mile and a half, with the 84-rated Sharkeyboy and the 89-rated Madbadanddangerous finishing one length in front of him.
Today, he races against rivals rated in the 70s and must have a great chance. Emmet Mullins has opted for jockey Ben Coen, who will be a great asset to the horse.
Ben is a confident and strong rider, and this will be ideal in getting the horse going early and seeing out the finishing part of the race.
Off a mark of 69, I feel this horse has an excellent chance for owners who have had success.
