RACING:ONE OF the easiest winners of the flat campaign so far was Time Of My Life at Wexford on Saturday and Tommy Stack's son of Galileo is impossible to oppose when he attempts a quick follow-up at Roscommon this evening.

Three uninspiring runs as a juvenile were quickly forgotten when the Coolmore-owned horse reappeared over a mile and a half at the weekend. Time Of My Life romped to a 15-length success and was well supported in the market.

The son of Galileo started an evens favourite on Saturday, but it is unlikely there will be any of that available when he carries a mandatory 5lb penalty in the second of the mile-and-a-half handicaps tonight.

Star Of Aragon also scored at Wexford on Saturday and is first reserve for the first handicap today. If he gets in he will go well again on forecast “good” ground. If he does not, Leah Claire can get the reward for consistency.
