IT IS all about the Dublin Racing Festival this weekend with a slice of Sandown Park thrown in and some very interesting wagers away from the big meetings to boot later on in the day.

Willie Mullins will once again be looking to dominate Leopardstown over the two days. With eight Grade One events up for grabs, supported by five Grade Two and Listed events, it’s almost like a Cheltenham Festival on home territory for the Irish horses.

Top of the shop for me this afternoon as far as value is concerned is SUPERSUNDAE in the opening novice event over a stamina sapping extended two-and-three-quarter miles at 1.15.
