Grann's Boy (IRE) won the 15:12 Galway at SP 19.00. Ridden by Sean Flanagan. Trained by H Rogers.
No — the AI top pick (Dani Donadoni) finished F.
Top finishers: 1. Grann's Boy (IRE) (19.00), 2. Pinot Gris (IRE) (34.00), 3. Double Powerful (IRE) (21.00).
The winning time was 5m 19.30s.
American Mike heads the field on a rating of 146, eight points clear of the next-best Dream On Baby, and that advantage over a marathon twenty-two furlongs on good ground gives him a meaningful edge in what is a competitive renewal. Dream On Baby, Ifiwerearichman and Pinot Gris all represent genuine dangers in a big field, and with twenty-two runners over the trip there is plenty that can go wrong. Confidence is modest, but the ratings edge is hard to ignore. **American Mike** is our selection.
Racing Post pick: American Mike
