Edwulf was a remarkable story on the second day of the hugely successful inaugural Dublin Racing Festival at Leopardstown. Back in March a year ago he collapsed at the end of the 4-miler, he was all but dead for around 40 minutes, before a remarkable recovery. It was hard to believe he'd return to the track fit & well, let alone storming home to win the Irish Gold Cup at 33/1.

Mr Adjudicator was our winner on Sunday, following up Saturday's 22/1 winner Supasundae.
Killultagh Vic was going well and had taken the lead when coming down at the last. It was a great relief to see the horse recovered, and was none the worse for the tumble.
