w1nsome Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 Ante-post favourite The Real Article features among a maximum field of 20 runners in the Guinness Galway Hurdle on Thursday. Edward O'Grady's five-time winner was beaten just a short head by Captain Cee Bee under a hands-and-heels ride in the Grimes Hurdle at Tipperary on his latest start. The course stewards decided to take no action over the performance on the night and the Turf Club cancelled a planned inquiry on Monday, so The Real Article will take his chance officially 18lb 'well in' at the weights. ============ cant believe no action was taken over this matter:loon 1 of the most blatent acts of [ "schooling","non trying","guarding 1s handicap","cheating",,,call it what you like],i've seen in 40 odd years gambling.If jockey[same] even attempts to pick up his whip in this race,they want to throw the book at the trainer.
