irishmirror.ie

Galopin Des Champs aims for a historic third consecutive Gold Cup at Cheltenham today. If successful, he will be the first Irish-trained horse since 1966 to achieve this feat. He has won two major races leading up to this event. Trainer Willie Mullins also hopes for a win with Dinoblue in the Mrs Paddy Power Mares' Chase. After finishing second last year, Dinoblue has shown strong form recently and faces last year's winner again, who has struggled since. In the JCB Triumph Hurdle, Lulamba is favored after an impressive debut. Meanwhile, Wingmen is a contender in the Albert Bartlett Novices’ Hurdle, and Ndaawi is expected to perform well in the County Hurdle after a break.
