Racing will go ahead at Leopardstown this afternoon following an early morning inspection.

Officials made the decision to have a precautionary inspection due to the forecast of low temperatures last night but found no frost at the south Co. Dublin track this morning.

Boylesports sponsor two competitive €100,000 handicaps on the seven-race card which gets underway at 12.50, while Vautour faces just two rivals in the Grade 2 Killiney Novice Chase.
