Maximum field to contest Galway Plate

Tuesday, 28 July 2009

A maximum field of 22 will go to post for tomorrow's William Hill Galway Plate - the richest race of the Ballybrit Festival week.

The Tony Martin-trained Royal County Star, to be ridden by Davy Russell, will carry top weight.

Rory de Cimbre, trained by Paul Nicholls and the mount of Ruby Walsh, is the only British challenger.

Last year's runner up, Oodachee, is also in the field, while owner JP McManus looks determined to win the race again as he will have four runners, including Cool Running.

Columnist Comments

• Gritty, moving and heroic...Billy plays captured life here

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times ... Sunday's 30th anniversary screening of the seminal Too Late to Talk to Billy was riveting viewing. But it wasn't nostalgic viewing.

• Parties need better defence in Stormont's game of two halves

Surprise, surprise. Peter Robinson has been to his first gaelic match, Martin McGuinness is heading for Windsor Park and the Ulster Unionists have scored another own goal.

• Why trying to go on a diet is never really a piece of cake

Some people make New Year’s resolutions, I make lists. Every new year I determine to keep track of everything I spend and everything I eat and drink.

• Scary movie? Their jaws were sore from laughing

Teenage boys love horror films and I have two who are in charge of the remote control in our house, so naturally there’s gore-a-plenty on the box most weekends. However, until recently one film was banned.
