A very warm welcome to Leopardstown Racecourse!

Welcome to day two of the QuinnBet National Hunt Finale, the last of our jump meetings for this season and what a season it has been! We have enjoyed top-class racing throughout the campaign, highlighted by exceptional action across both the Christmas and Dublin Racing Festivals. National Hunt racing at Leopardstown has once again delivered thrilling performances and tremendous support from racegoers.

We are delighted to welcome QuinnBet as feature sponsors of The QuinnBet National Hunt Finale fixture. QuinnBet kindly sponsor two races throughout the day, The QuinnBet Mares Handicap Hurdle and The QuinnBet Handicap Hurdle. Their continued support of this fixture is greatly appreciated and reflects their strong commitment to Irish racing.

Many thanks to Irish EBF for their continued support at Leopardstown, sponsoring races across the card. The Irish Stallion Farms EBF are key sponsors over all Irish racecourses and contribute significant additional prize money each year. The EBF also support selected veterinary research programmes benefitting the racing and breeding industry.

Leopardstown is proud to host a round of The John Thomas McNamara Series during this fixture. This series is organised by the Irish Qualified Riders Association and aims to promote young amateur riders in memory of amateur jockey John Thomas McNamara. Best of luck to all riders taking part.

We are excited for the upcoming flat season. Our opening fixture is The Ballylinch Stud Classic Trials Day next month. This raceday is packed full of action where future Group and Classic contenders can be seen, with the card traditionally featuring three Group 3 races. Tickets are available on leopardstown.com, with a-la-carte dining in the 1888 Restaurant also available. Secure your spot by booking online at www. leopardstown.com or call our office at 01-2890550.

As we close our jumps season, we reflect on another memorable campaign at Leopardstown and thank our owners, trainers, jockeys, stable staff, sponsors and racegoers for their continued support throughout the year.

On behalf of the Leopardstown team, we hope you have a great day. If there is anything we can do to make your visit more enjoyable, please let us know.

RACE 1 PREDICTOR

The Predictor is a ‘Computer Generated’ predicted outcome of the race in visual form, generated by an algorithm of key factors (including eg current form, ratings and going.)

RACE VERDICT

Despite having no hurdling experience, GENEROUS RISK is probably the one to beat based on his bumper form in good company. Le Moulin Rouge second to a stablemate of the selection here at Christmas, rates an obvious danger. Jet To Monte Carlo and Haveanothertry have also shown potential.

Having made a solid start to handicaps when second to Pebble Bleu at Thurles last time, POOKIE HOLLER can go one better today. The former was since poor in a Grade 3 and has to rebound. Lonesome Boatman hasn’t run over hurdles since 2021 but is capable of running well.

RACE VERDICT

The 7lb mares’ allowance could prove crucial for DAMEAUSCOTTLESTOWN who has lately got her act together over hurdles. Strutter has been ready to run for a while (missed engagements because of cancellations) and could make a big impact on chase debut. Killaney King and Joyau De Thaix also look capable of getting into the mix.

RACE 8 PREDICTOR

The Predictor is a ‘Computer Generated’ predicted outcome of the race in visual form, generated by an algorithm of key factors (including eg current form, ratings and going.)

SELECTION: ARAMINTA

RACE VERDICT

Araminta is the one to beat on form and Poetic Twist isn’t far behind her but both look vulnerable too. A chance is taken on the well-bred ROOM FOR ONE MORE making a winning debut, with her stablemate Ruby Grace also likely to run well. Ealu is worth a market check for a shrewd outfit.
