'It's A Hell Of A Race' | Irish Champions Festival Tips & Preview | On The Wire

On The Wire is back for a new season, as Andrew Blair White is joined by Donn McClean, Johnny Ward and the Irish Field's Mark Boylan to preview Irish Champions Festival 2026. The panel work through Saturday's card at Leopardstown with full declarations in hand — the Golden Fleece Stakes, the Kilternan, a Matron Stakes with two Ballydoyle fillies taking on Blue Bolt; and an Irish Champion Stakes that brings Item and Constitution River back together. Plus a look ahead to Sunday at the Curragh, and the panel share their best bets for the weekend. #IrishChampionsFestival #bettingtips #horseracing BOYLE Sports Irish Offer : €100 in Free Bets & Money Back as a Free Bet if 2nd to SP Favourite - Irish Champions Festival Claim here: https://ads.boylesports.com/redirect....
