Who's your Banker of the Day at Leopardstown on Saturday? – Vote today

One of the highlights of the National Hunt season takes place this weekend at Leopardstown, The Dublin Racing Festival, where several of the key Irish contenders of the Cheltenham Festival will be out to set a final marker down before March.

We've picked out four leading contenders from four of the best races on Saturday and are asking you, our Coral Racing Club members, if you had to vote for one to be your Banker of the Day, who would you pick?

The horse who gets the most votes will be put into an exclusive Coral Racing Club Odds Booster that will be available under Specials on the Horse Racing page shortly after the poll closes on Friday at 1pm.

Banker of the Day Preview

13:50 Spring Juvenile Hurdle – Storm Heart

Storm Heart
ended his flat career in France with a victory over a mile and four furlongs, before moving to Willie Mullins' yard in Ireland. He then won by over twenty lengths on his jumping debut, over the same distance he will run on Saturday. 

Can he go back-to-back over hurdles?

14:25 Irish Arkle Novice Chase – Marine Nationale

Barry Connell's stable star is undefeated in his six runs to date under rules, including a victory in the Supreme Novices' Hurdle at Cheltenham last year. Marine Nationale was then kept off the track until December, where he won his chase debut with relative ease over course and distance. 

Will he remain undefeated going into this year's Cheltenham Festival?

15:35 Irish Gold Cup – Galopin Des Champs

Galopin Des Champs
was the winner of this contest last year, before following up with victory in the Cheltenham Gold Cup straight afterwards. He was also a winner over course and distance in his last run, beating Gerri Colombe by over twenty lengths. 

Can he retain his crown?

16:40 Future Stars I.N.H Flat Race – A Dream To Share

A Dream To Share has five victories in five bumpers to date, including in last year's edition of this race, and the subsequent Champion Bumper at Cheltenham. However, he has been off the track since winning the Punchestown Champion Bumper in April of last year.

Can he make it six wins from six on Saturday?
