THE Leopardstown Christmas Racing Festival is back for 2020.
It has been a strange year for everyone and this year’s festival, like everything else, will be impacted by the coronavirus pandemic.
There will be no punters in attendance this year.
We will however be providing updates all throughout day one of the festival.
So make sure you stay tuned to our unrivalled coverage here at SunSport.
