20:40 Galway - 1 August 2025 - Results - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

Tony Martin has won this race twice in the last 10 years and might be able to strike in it again courtesy of PRALOGNAN, who looked to have a bit up his sleeve when scoring on AW at Newcastle 5 weeks ago. Miss Gitana is an obvious threat for Gordon Elliot after a Flat win and hurdle second last month. Empress Alma and Preparations are also shortlisted in this wide-open finale.

  1. PRALOGNAN (FR)
  2. MISS GITANA (IRE)
  3. EMPRESS ALMA (IRE)
