Review galway 29th Jul Overturn ended a British drought in the Guinness Galway Hurdle with a commanding performance under Graham Lee.With the Scottish Champion Hurdle and Northumberland Plate already in the bag, the 6-1 chance took up the running soon after the start and had just Dirar for company after jumping the penultimate flight.He soon saw off Gordon Elliott's representative and stormed five and a half lengths clear, with last year's winner Bahrain Storm staying on past Dirar for second.Elliott enjoyed better luck in the Perfect Pint Beginners Chase when Chicago Grey (4-1) held off the Dermot Weld-trained Prince Erik, who was far from fluent at his fences but still rallied gamely to be beaten a neck.Weld struck a rare blank on the day and his Force Of Habit couldn't add to Monday's win here in the Arthur's Legacy Handicap, which went the way of 25-1 outsider Dusty Trail, who completed a double for young Joseph O'Brien.O'Brien needed some assistance to initiate his brace, though.Separate Ways crossed the line first in a rough renewal of the Guinness Time Handicap, but lost the race in the stewards' room to O'Brien on Luttrell Lady (9-2).The latter struck trouble more than once in the short home straight, yet still got to within half a length of her opponent.Smart Striking was John Oxx's first runner at this week's Festival and punters took the hint, supporting her down to 5-2 favouritism before she fought well for Ben Curtis to head long-time leader Anam Chara in the shadows of the post.Despite jumping the last in front, Beau Michael looked a sitting duck when Adajal and Armaramak loomed up to challenge in the St.James's Gate Novice Chase, but Adrian McGuinness' 4-1 joint-favourite showed tremendous resolution to edge out the latter by a neck.Persian Gayle (7-1) broke through at Wexford earlier in the month and supplemented that in the Signature Novice Hurdle.
