It's that time of year again as Cheltenham Festival fever kicks in once again.
This year's festival gets underway on Tuesdsay, March 10th with a number of Irish challengers for the main races.
Off The Ball racing pundit Donn McClean, Hayley O'Connor of Ladbrokes and jockey Barry Geraghty joined us on the line tonight to preview the main talking points and feature races.
And the way it's looking, it could be another strong year for the Irish charges.
"It's probably as strong a team as Ireland has ever sent. It's probably as strong a team as Wille Mullins has sent. I think he sent 40 horses last year. He's talking about 50 this year," said Donn, while, Hayley does not think Hurricane Fly can be written off.
