LEOPARDSTOWN MIN BET: The busy festive period of racing gets underway at Leopardstown this afternoon where the feature race on the card is the Grade 1 Racing Post Novice Chase at 2.20pm.
The Christmas Feast isn’t just about eating – we’ve got some mouth-watering Christmas fayre to look forward to at Leopardstown starting today with the Racing Post Novice Chase at 2.20pm.
Willie Mullins has won three of the last five runnings including last year with Douvan and he should collect again this year with the five-year-old Min.
A French import, Min made an immediate impression when winning on debut at Punchestown and was then hugely impressive given his lack of experience when winning the Moscow Flyer Novice Hurdle at Punchestown.
He was then sent off favourite for the Supreme at the Cheltenham Festival but found Altior seven lengths too good.
Min made all to make a winning chase debut at Navan and jumped well – he should land this en-route to more Grade 1’s this season.
Identity Thief has more experience and is the obvious danger – he has impressed in both his wins over fences so far at Punchestown.
The other graded race on the card is the Knight Frank Juvenile Hurdle at 1.15pm and Landofhopeandglory can maintain his 100% record over hurdles.
SHAMROCK’S BETS:
NAP: Min (2.20 Leopardstown)
NEXT BEST: Landofhopeandglory (1.15 Leopardstown)
