The Galway Hurdle is one of the most prestigious contests on the National Hunt schedule in Ireland.

It takes place on Ladies Day during the week-long Galway Festival and the handicap, which takes in nine flights over two miles, boasts a bumper prize fund worth €270,000.

Tudor City is bidding to become the first three-time winner of the race following successes in 2022 and 2019 and the veteran runner sneaks into contention at the bottom of the weights.

You can run the rule over our Galway Hurdle odds on the Paddy Power website and Paddy Power app, otherwise all the key details about this year’s renewal can be found below.
