Galway 5:30 - Thetote.com Galway Plate Handicap Chase(Grade A) 2m6f Alderwood heads the betting at around the 8/1 mark, a horse we are all familiar with when it comes to Cheltenham. The 10 year old gelding will have to improve a lot on what he has shown on recent outings but the champ Tony McCoy is booked to ride and he warrants plenty of respect. Interestingly, he is two from two (100%) over this trip of 2m6f and he has had a 9 month break to freshen up. As always, JP McManus comes into this type of race with an army of weapons but I have sided for Lord Ben at the prices. This is a progressive looking horse for a top trainer, the step up in trip should suit and although he had to battle to win last time out, they were well clear of the rest.
