No fewer than 11 race meetings take place today across Ireland and the UK, including many brilliant Grade 1s. Ran over three miles, it is one of the most famous races in the national hunt calendar. Willie Mullins would love to repeat the success of Florida Pearl in 2001 and Tornado Flyer in 2021, and he runs two-time Ryanair Chase winner Allaho. The English charge will be led by the defending champion Bravemansame, whose trainer, Paul Nicholls, has won the race a record 13 times. There is also Grade 1 action from Leopardstown, where Facile Vega is the hot favourite in the Racing Post Novice Chase. We will also be keeping track of events at Limerick, Down Royal and Aintree on the busiest day of the year in national hunt racing. What a day of racing! Constitution Hill showed himself to be the biggest star of national hunt racing, but the story of the day was undoubtedly the €850 horse Hewick winning the King George. Shark Hanlon has won the biggest prize of his career and it's going to be a hell of a party.
