An excellent Boxing day saw all three of my picks win, At Leopardstown Lossiemouth led at the last keeping on strongly towards the finish. The 4/5 favourite comfortably beat Gala Marceau by 7 1/2 lengths. In the 2.20 Saint Roi was travelling well entering the straight disputing the lead at the last. He led on the run-in beating Visionarian by 2 1/4 lengths. Over at Limerick Gerri Colombe challenged from 4 out leading entering the straight. He pulled away keeping on close to home beating Adamantly Chosen by 4 1/4 lengths.
The Christmas festival's at Leopardstown and Limerick continue on Tuesday with 3 main events.
Leopardstown 1.10: Paddy's Rewards Club Chase (Grade 1)
4: Chacun Pour Soi: Has won this race in his career and despite being nearly 11 he was still in top-class form last season which included winning the grade one Ladbrokes Dublin chase on this course. If anywhere near that then he is the one to beat on this his reappearance.
Limerick 1.29: Lyons Of Limerick Jaguar Land Rover Novice Hurdle (Grade 2)
6: Jungle Prose: A promising horse who picked up his career best win in a handicap hurdle at Navan 30 days ago. He came home by a comfortable 1 1/2 lengths and is the pick to complete a 5-timer here extending his unbeaten record.
Leopardstown 1.45: Paddy Power Future Champions Novice Hurdle (Grade 1)
1: Facile Vega: A horse who arrives in outstanding form after picking up his career best win on hurdles debut at Fairyhouse 24 days ago. That impressive 14 length victory already puts him in contention for the Supreme at the Cheltenham Festival and he is hard to oppose here.
