Boylesports.com and Leopardstown racecourse have signed a major three-year sponsorship deal.
The new deal will see Boylesports become the title sponsor for the opening day of the Leopardstown January Jumps Weekend on January 28.
As part of the sponsorship agreement, the Irish firm will take up the sponsorship of the Grade B Boylesports Hurdle. It will also provide a cash bonus of €100,000 to the winner should they go on to win at the Cheltenham Festival, as well as sponsoring the Grade 2 Novice Steeplechase and give €50,000 to the winner of that race if they too succeed at the March extravaganza.
Leon Blanche, Boylesports head of PR, commented: "This three-year agreement underlines Boylesports commitment to Irish racing. We are actively working to increase our portfolio of quality sponsorships in Ireland."
Ciaran Conroy, commercial manager at Leopardstown, added: "This race has always been regarded as one of the most exciting and hotly contested races in the National Hunt calendar. We look forward to partnering with the Boylesports team over the next three years and making this event into a great success."
