WATCH: Comanche Brave delivers statement performance in Flying Five triumph (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Bar 1 Betting Flying Five Stakes (Group 1) AFTER enduring a luckless Group 1 passage with A Boy Named Susie in the Irish Champion Stakes less than 24 hours earlier, Donnacha O’Brien got on the Irish Champions Festival scoresheet for 2026 thanks to a sizzling display from Comanche Brave, who can now safely be described as one of the best sprinters Ireland has produced for the last decade. With the exception of a brief moment of anxiety when waiting for a gap on the July Cup winner, it was a highl
MARK BOYLAN: The inexperience query hanging over a Champions Festival favourite (opens the original)
Read excerpt
IRISH Champions Festival 2026 is littered with big questions and the answers promise to make for entertaining viewing over the coming two days at Leopardstown and the Curragh.

When running costs have risen at a rate that isn’t in alignment with prize money rewards, it can make patience be even harder to show when results are not going to plan. That is part of what makes a marvellous summer for one set of connections with a well-campaigned veteran all the more sweet. They have been remarkably patient.
OPINION: This family operation has been one of the stories of the flat season (opens the original)
Read excerpt
NOT many Irish premier handicaps are won with the type of swagger that Loughrea won the Tote Irish Cambridgeshire with last Saturday. Then again, not many yards are having the type of season that his trainer Andy Slattery has been having in 2026. Next March will mark 30 years since the Co Tipperary handler sent out his first winner and - after a flurry of victories in the past few days - the current campaign is now officially his very best yet. The success of his family-run operation has been on
