CHAMPAGNE SEASON: Champagne Fever is one of several star performers on show during the busy Festive period in Ireland.
No racing in Ireland today so a quick look ahead to next week.
Ruby Walsh is excited at the prospect of riding Champagne Fever the Racing Post Novice Chase at Leopardstown on St. Stephen’s Day.
Walsh is a big fan of the dual Cheltenham Festival winner, who made all the running on his debut of fences when easily beating Corbally Ghost by four lengths at Punchestown last month.
Walsh predicts fireworks from the Willie Mullins-trained grey when he goes for a fifth Grade One success in the two-mile-one-furlong contest.
“He’s a good jumper and he’s an athletic horse who likes to bowl along and get on with his business,” Walsh told Racing UK.
“Defy Logic is also a front runner in that race over Christmas, so I’m sure there will be no hiding place for those behind us.
