Champion Hurdle (15:30 GMT)
Apple's Jade has been better than ever this season and showed she was fully effective at two miles when romping home by 16 lengths in the Irish Champion Hurdle.
"I was nervous before the Dublin Racing Festival. Everyone was telling me - people you respect in racing and press people - that she could win a Champion Hurdle," said trainer Gordon Elliott.
"I have to say myself that I didn't know if she could show the pace she showed in Leopardstown.
"She just showed how good she is. She was awesome the last day and has been awesome all season."
