Another hurdle negotiated

Well i got the job done in galway last night with dineenos lad qualifying handy enough in 2nd place the winner had flown from trap 1 and clocked a smashing time of 29.09 this run looked on the cards for this fella for quiet some time as he has gone off a short price fav in every race he has run so far i was beat a total of 5 1/2 lengths he tried hard to close and looked to be bridging the gap between the third and fourth bend but when they straighten up the winner powered away again either way i was happy I'm into the next round and that's what its all about
The stake is definitely hotting up with some smart performances from some winners with the most impressive being from jackies nikie this lady pinged the lids and at the first bend it was how far... she won by a massive 12 lengths a top class performance and she has to be now one of the ante post favs another i liked on the card was valentia rover this lad chased home james roche charge in the 4th heat of the night making up eye catching ground coming to the line
Eilishes boy and ballymac misty had contrasting fortunes eilishes boy had every chance going up the back after turning a clear second but he disappointed to finish a well beaten 5th and it looks like there maybe something amiss,ballymac misty on the other hand stuck to her task well to qualify in 2nd after some early bunching
The next round draw with 24 left in the hat will be ultra important and i will be hoping to swerve some of the heat winners but there is no doubt my lad is going to have to step up on his last 2 performances but I'm confident that if i can get him on the bunny he should do a good run
