It's more than just horse-racing. The Leopardstown Christmas Festival is a highlight of the Irish sporting and social calendar - and you and three mates can be there (with Tote betting vouchers in hand).

Thanks to our friends across at Tote Ireland, we’re giving away not one, not two, but five brilliant packages for Leopardstown Christmas Festival.

Each package includes admission for four people to Leopardstown on any one of the four days of the Festival, which takes place from December 26-29, with €40 in Tote betting vouchers thrown in for good measure.

Leopardstown will be impossible to ignore again this year. There are six Grade 1 races down for decision, including The Irish Racing Post Novice Chase on St Stephen’s Day, the Lexus Chase on December 28^th and the Istabraq Festival Hurdle on December 29^th, newly renamed in honour of arguably the greatest Irish racehorse of recent times.

Update: Competition closed. It proved to be a tough one - a lot of people got it wrong!

Anyway, the winners are: Richard Dunphy, Paul Woods, Joe Dixon, Joe O'Reilly and Michael Cantwell.

Thanks to everyone for entering. Hope everyone enjoys Leopardstown, and make sure to consider a bet with the Tote - they are the backers of all our racing coverage, after all!

And as promised, here's what happened next.
