The Irish Champion Hurdle is the feature on the second day of the Dublin Racing Festival at Leopardstown.
This season’s edition looks like being a proper smash up as State Man, the winner of the last two renewals, faces star stablemate Lossiemouth.
In addition to providing €112,000 to winning connections, it is likely to prove crucial to the field for the Champion Hurdle at the Cheltenham Festival as poor runs from the two mares could see them reroute to the Mares’ Hurdle.
Irish Champion Hurdle odds can be found on the Paddy Power website and Paddy Power app, otherwise all the key details for this year’s renewal are below.
