Kargese is a leading chance for Willie Mullins in the opening race on the final day. The four-year-old won impressively on her previous start at the Dublin Racing Festival, beating a number of re-appearing rivals.

Harry Skelton and Dan Skelton join forces with L'eau Du Sud in the County Hurdle on Friday. He was in strong form on heavy ground on his previous start, finishing two lengths behind Iberico Lord in the Betfair Hurdle.

Readin Tommy Wrong doesn't have much to find on official ratings, and could be a solid selection for the team of Paul Townend and Willie Mullins to maintain his unbeaten record over hurdles.

Galopin Des Champs will be looking to give Willie Mullins a second straight win in the Gold Cup. The runner dominated the field 12 months ago, finishing seven lengths clear of an in-form Bravemansgame.

Two against the field in the Foxhunters' Chase. Premier Magic was an impressive winner of the race last year, and returning runners have a solid record in this race.

Limerick Lace represents the Gavin Cromwell yard in the Mares' Chase. The seven-year-old has won four from nine starts over fences, finishing as the runner-up on three occasions.

Better Days Ahead is one of two selections in the final race of the Festival. The six-year-old represents the Gordon Elliott yard and has form behind Slade Steel over two miles and four, which has worked out well.
