RACING: Robbie Power’s guide to the festive action

A Plus Tard, Conflated, Stattler, Klassical Dream and Flooring Porter are the main contenders for the Christmas Hurdle run in memory of Jack De Bromhead on the same day. Davy Russell, a three-time Irish Champion jockey, announced his retirement from the saddle following success at Thurles on Sunday. Frankie Dettori will retire at the end of next season. Robbie Power was surprised when Davi came back after the horrific injury he suffered at Munster National. He was a giant of the weighing room. The Matheson HURDLE on December 29 is also a race to note with Sharjah chasing a record fifth straight win in the contest.
