The Dubai Duty Free Irish Derby Festival runs over three days at the Curragh Racecourse in County Kildare. The centrepiece is the Irish Derby on Sunday, a Group 1 Classic run over one mile and four furlongs on turf, attracting the best middle-distance three-year-olds from Ireland, Britain and beyond.
The Curragh, Ireland’s headquarters of flat racing, provides a sweeping galloping track on the Kildare plains, offering a true test of class and stamina across a festival packed with top-quality racing.
