Patrick Mullins Says...
" I'm delighted to work with Race and Stay to welcome our many guests to this top-class festival and if 2024 is anything to go by then 2025 will be another fabulous weekend. Leopardstown stages some of the best racing in Ireland and the Dublin Racing Festival is one we target with all of our best horses. The big races are very prestigious and all races over the weekend have excellent prize money on offer. A great festival, a fabulous racecourse and a very fair track to ride with a stiff finish, Leopardstown is a racecourse everyone wants to win at. I Hope to meet you there."
