Irish Champions weekend day 1

 At Leopardstown two group one's were the highlight of the opening day of Irish champions weekend. In the Justify Matron stakes Peaceful and Fancy Blue were both beaten by 9\2 shot Champers Elysees,Peaceful ended up second and Fancy Blue was third. There was a surprise in the big race of the day the Irish champion Stakes where favourite Ghaiyyath finished 2nd behind Aidan O'Brien's Magical while the other big horse in the race Japan could only finish 5th.

Tomorrow at The Curragh there are four more group one's including the Irish St Leger at 4.40.
