Yorkhill Jett Gangster

The Killiney Novice Chase was a Grade 3 National Hunt chase in Ireland. It was run at Leopardstown Racecourse in January, over a distance of 2 miles and 3 furlongs. Prior to 2010 the race was titled the Paddy Fitzpatrick Memorial Novice Chase. In 2010 it was called the MCR Chase, in 2011 it was called Tote Pick Six Killiney Novice Chase and in 2012 and 2013 the race was sponsored by Boylesports and run as the Boylesports.com Bet On Your Mobile Novice Chase. Boylesports continued to sponsor the race in 2013 when the title reverted to the Killiney Novice Chase. Since 2016 it has been sponsored by the Ladbrokes Coral bookmaking group. It was downgraded from Grade 2 to Grade 3 in 2017.[1]

The race was first run in 1995.

The race was last run in January 2017, as it was discontinued by the creation of the Leopardstown Dublin Festival in 2018. This new meeting "combines the feature races from Leopardstown’s current three stand-alone meetings in late January and mid-February".[2]
