There are two Grade One races for punters to enjoy, along with an array of competitive handicaps – all have the ability to bring some much needed punting release after three days of constant eating, drinking and no gambling.
The feature race is the Grade One Paddy Power Dial-a-Bet Chase, which has been won in three of the last four years by the gallant Big Zeb.
The 11-year-old is back again to defend his crown but he has lost some of sparkle in the last 12 months and all the money is for Sizing Europe to land the spoils.
Rather surprisingly Sizing Europe has never run in this race despite being one of the top two mile chasers of the last five seasons.
He won the Champion Chase at the Cheltenham Festival in 2011 and has four other Grade One wins to his name over fences.
Trainer Henry de Bromhead has brought the horse back even better this season judging by his impressive wins at Gowran Park and Clonmel. There had been rumours of his stepping up to three miles to tackle the King George at Kempton but that has been quashed by De Bromhead, who wants to keep Sizing Europe in Ireland over Christmas.
He is certainly the one to beat and the 1/2 odds available on him winning this event look the closest thing you can get to a certainty in jump racing.
If he makes it round the course safe, he wins. Paddy Power could be paying out a mammoth sum come the end of Friday evening. His rivals are in short supply with Rubi Light, who was beat a long way behind Gold Cup contenders Flemenstar and Sir Des Champs at Punchestown last time out.
He is dropping back to two miles, which should help his cause, but the 5/1 with Paddy Power looks awfully short.
Another race to keep an eye on with the Supreme Novices Hurdle at the Cheltenham Festival in mind is the Paddy Power Future Champions Novice Hurdle, where the very exciting Jezki looks to continue his winning run for trainer Jessica Harrington.
He is three from three over hurdles this season and beat the classy Champagne Fever, who reposes again, last time out in the Grade One Bar One Racing Royal Bond Novice Hurdle.
That form should hold up again and the 13/8 with Paddy Power looks well worth taking. In fact, doubling up the two favourites in the respective races looks the play to reap the most reward.
One thing to keep in mind for the day’s racing is that you can watch all the action from Ireland via Paddy Power’s excellent live streaming service, which can be accessed through mobile, Ipad and on their website.
Reports have shown that over 25% of Paddy Power’s 2.5 million customers in the opening quarter of 2012 placed and watched racing through this function, and that number is growing week-on-week.
The app, of course, free to download and all you need to do is create a Paddy Power account, which is also free of charge, to use the facility.
Access to the streaming couldn’t be easier, and you don’t even need to place a bet to watch your desired race on Paddy Power day at Leopardstown, all you need to do is download the app and as long as your Paddy Power account is funded, or you have placed a bet on the website within the last 24 hours, you will be able to view all races via the functions, wherever you may be.
