Death Duty and Footpad clash in Stephen's Day cracker at Leopardstown
Death Duty and Footpad lock horns in what promises to be a fascinating Racing Post Novice Chase at Leopardstown on Stephen's Day.
Death Duty extended his unbeaten record over fences to three with a comprehensive victory in the Drinmore Novice Chase at Fairyhouse earlier this month and while trainer Gordon Elliott had suggested his charge was likely to head to Limerick for a two-and-a-half-mile Grade Two, he instead runs over two miles in the feature event on the opening card of Leopardstown's Christmas Festival.
