Leopardstown Christmas Hurdle Betting

The Leopardstown Christmas Hurdle takes place each during the Leopardstown Christmas Meeting in December. It is part of an exciting four days of race and betting as some of the finest horses from Ireland and Britain compete.

Betting interest in this race in particular is fierce as it is a Grade Two affair and it often attracts some very fine contenders from both Britain and Ireland. It is a three mile race and it is one of the features of the Leopardstown Meeting.

Irish trainers have enjoyed plenty of success in the race in recent years and that is well worth noting when considering the ante-post betting, while Commanche Court used victory in this race as a springboard for future success as he went on to win the Punchestown Gold Cup and the Irish Grand National.

Other Grade One races at the Leopardstown Christmas Meeting include:

Lexus Chase | Future Champions Novice Hurdle | Fort Leney Novice Chase
