Majestic Concorde Heads Galway Plate Betting – 65 Stand Ground 22/07/10

A total of 65 horses have stood their ground at the latest forfeit stage for next Wednesday’s Tote Galway Plate at Ballybrit.

The Dermot Weld trained Majestic Concorde is now the 6-1 favourite for the race having been 8-1 earlier on in the week.

Other interesting movers over the last few days include the Willie Mullins trained Themoonandsixpence (12-1 to 8-1), Grand Slam Hero (12-1 to 10-1) and Nicanor (25-1 to 20-1).

‘Majestic Concorde and Themoonandsixpence have been the two best backed horses in the race,’ said Hills spokesman Tony Kenny ‘However, both seem to perform better on a sound surface, and with the ground currently soft, soft to heavy in places – we could see a real shake-up in the market if the ground remains the same or gets worse.’
