The Galway Races continues today with another big crowd expected at Ballybrit.
It's been a week of fairytales at the meeting so far with €850 purchase Hewick winning the Galway Plate before Tudor City became the oldest horse since 1947 to win the Galway Hurdle, with Liam McKenna guiding him to victory in what was his first ride since breaking his collarbone in the Irish Grand National back in April.
And there's sure to be plenty more great stories over the coming days. Here's a full list of the runners and riders for Friday:
