All eyes will be on the prestigious Galway Plate on day three as a stack of cracking chasers tackle 14 fences over 2m6½f in the battle for the €159,300 top prize. The same sum is on offer the following day in the Galway Hurdle, won in recent years by the likes of Saldier and Sharjah.

Paddy’s trusty traders have already priced up a number of antepost betting markets, which can be found on the Galway & Goodwood tab on paddypower.com. Otherwise, you’ll find the race schedule for all seven days of Galway Festival 2022 below.
