An incredible weekend of action lies in store at Leopardstown courtesy of the Dublin Racing Festival 2024.
There are eight Grade 1s on the agenda including the Paddy Power Irish Gold Cup on Saturday, featuring the latest instalment of Galopin Des Champs and Fastorslow’s emerging rivalry.
If that wasn’t enough, Sunday is set to see El Fabiolo take aim at the Dublin Chase and State Man attempt to successfully defend his Irish Champion Hurdle title. Woof!
As well as being prestigious event in its own right, the DRF will also help clear up the Cheltenham Festival picture, especially in the novice ranks as leading contenders begin to emerge.
If you like trying to find the winner in a big-field handicap then there are five to enjoy picking over, while future superstars could be on show in bumpers that round off proceedings on both days.
The latest Dublin Racing Festival odds can be found on the Paddy Power website and Paddy Power app, otherwise the schedule and race time for this year’s meeting ins below.
