Ahead of the opening day of the 2020 Cheltenham Racing Festival we've got a special offering of The Buildup podcast, as we chat to our resident horse racing nerd, Aonghus Ó Maicín.

Aonghus gives us his picks for the big races across the week,as well his most anticipated storylines, while Mark tries to turn oracle with his "Mark's Waters" shouts.
The Buildup, in association with Ladbrokes is our weekly look ahead to the weekend's sport, marking your card for another packed weekend of sporting action. We'll be back on Wednesday with this week's full show.

Please bet responsibly, visit Dunlewey.net for further information. Send us your Big Shouts or get in touch with the show for any reason by emailing [email protected] or contact us @ballsdotie on Twitter or Instagram.
