Ruby Walsh: Four-way battle on the cards in Galway Hurdle

This afternoon, this country's most competitive hurdle race will go to post at 4.30pm. Because of the prize fund it carries, and with €159,000 up for grabs to whoever can win it, the Guinness Galway Hurdle has an edge.

No quarter will be given, no favours handed out, and it is certainly not a day to call one in. Twenty runners will want to be where five can fit from flag fall and through this contest and the battle for those slots will continue.
