Enda McEvoy's TV verdict: If Clifford walked on sand he wouldn't leave footprints
The great day has dawned and there are so many questions to be asked and answered. After such a gloriously expansive championship will two notably expansive teams ('It's the right way to end the year,' Lee Keegan declares on RTÉ) provide a cracker, or, perversely and probably predictably, a damp squib? Agus ceist eile. Why do BBC Northern Ireland have an Irish female comedian you've never heard of, an English actor you've never heard of, Douglas Henshall (a Scottish actor you may or may not have heard of) and Martin Compston, the small guy from Line of Duty, empanelled to give their thoughts on the match?

We stormed Cheltenham last March napping 28/1 winner Wonderwall, now for Galway
Let's aim for Festival lift-off with I'm A Rocket Man at Galway in the last race this evening, writes Derek & The Pacemakers. The Stephen Casey trained six-year old's last run saw him finish third over this distance at Punchestown on June 7. But the suspicion is that he came across two 'hot ones' in the Willie Mullins trained Davy Crockett and French-bred Maskarvel. Davy Crockett was available at 11/10 in the morning but went off at 1/2, suggesting the word was out; Maskarvel was backed from 20/1 to 9/1. The I'm a Rocket Man song ain't half bad either, whether it's the 1972 original from Elton John which was ranked No. 149 in the 2021 list of Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Songs of All Time Or the John/Dua Lipa 2021 UK chart topping collaboration Cold Heart - no2 in Ireland, no7 in the US - which samples "Rocket Man" for its chorus. 'And I think it's gonna be a long, long time.'Til touchdown brings me 'round again to find, I'm not the man they think I am at home Oh, no, no, no, I'm a rocket man, rocket man, Burning out his fuse up here alone…'. I'm a Rocket Man will have Ireland's top amateur Derek O'Connor on board, easily the most experienced rider in the race. We stormed Cheltenham last time out, got the gold bricks in place napping 28/1 winner Wonderwall So commencing countdown, engines on for Galway, drum roll please - I'm a Rocket Man each way!
