The Leopardstown festival is continuing with more Gr 1s on Sunday.

Saturday some good racing with Apple's Jade won the Frank Ward Memorial Hurdle Gr 1 by 17 lengths from Unowwhatimeanharry.

The Savils Chase was a thriller with Delta Work under Jack Kennedy and Monalee under Rachael Blackmore going neck to neck down the straight and Rachael had lost her irons as well in the run in.  Road To Respect was third ahead of favourite Kemboy who blemished his picket fence in the process.

Sunday has the Neville Hotel Novice Chase with 7 runners and it looks to be between Battleoverdoyen on 7/4 for Gordon Elliott and Davy Russell, and Minella Indo for Henry de Bromhead and the in-form Rachael Blackmore on 2/1.

The Mathesons Hurdle looks like having just 6 starters as Apple's Jade went round on Saturday.  Klassical Dream is on 6/5 for Mullins-Townend and Coeur Sublime on 3/1.
