Johnny Ward's Galway tips: It's all Nonsense to me!

Storm Boelo has deferred the action at Galway back by 24 hours to Tuesday but with the winds having abated, can Johnny Ward blow the bookmakers down with his six selections?

1.20 Galway: Titanium
This horse has not had the conditions on which he thrives – a mile on proper testing ground – for some time and if he cannot get competitive here he looks gone at the game given the handicapper's help.
1.55 Galway: Nonsense
Given this horse's silks it was perhaps surprising he was 33s on debut at the Curragh and that is really good form for a debutant. He handles bad ground well and from gate one should be very hard to beat under Rowan Scott.
2.25 Galway: Wecouldavehaditall
This filly travelled like a winner in third on her only nursery start and the likelihood on pedigree is that she will relish this ground. If she settles in the hood she has strong each-way claims for the excellent Dan McLoughlin.
2.55 Galway: Abiding Memory
This half-sister to A Dream To Share started off with a promising run at Naas. Her promising young trainer is in good form and I feel she is likely to offer each-way value despite being by a powerhouse sire.
3.25 Galway: Racing Royalty
This horse loves Galway and this sort of ground. Nicola Burns got on well with him when he shaped pretty well here two runs back and he might be worth one last chance off such a low mark despite having clearly become disappointing.
3.55 Galway: Glenroyal
Owned by a Galway man, he ran here at the Festival but did not get two miles. He has no excuses here at likely decent odds.
