Shaneshill capable of stepping up to the Plate

Galway Plate day is always a special occasion, and I’ve been fortunate enough to win the race on a couple of occasions.

I won it nine years ago, on Oslot, and nine years before that, on Moscow Express, so hopefully I’m due a third victory in the race today.

Willie runs five in the race, and I’ve gone with Shaneshill, but let’s start at the top, with Ballycasey, who heads the field.
