Marchese Marconi should be too mobile for rivals

Marchese Marconi, having a second run of the festival, can land the nap in the Ladbrokes’ Mobile Maiden Hurdle at Galway this afternoon.

Aidan O’Brien’s charge contested the valuable Connnact Hotel Handicap over two miles on the level here on Monday night, trailing in 15th of 20 behind Quick Jack.

Too much, however, shouldn’t be read into that. The five-year-old had a terrible draw and was forced to race towards the outside for much of the journey. He then flattered with about two furlongs to run, before fading away.
