Top racing - and live rugby on big screens

Racing returns to Naas Racecourse today for top National Hunt Action featuring the BBA Ireland Opera Hat Mares Chase.

Rugby fans will also be able to enjoy live coverage of Guinness Six Nations clash of Ireland v Scotland in Murrayfield as Joe Schmidt's men try to avenge the comprehensive defeat by England in the Aviva last weekend.

The feature race today is the BBA Ireland Opera Hat Mares Steeplechase.

Last year the Willie Mullins-trained Benie Des Dieux won the Steeplechase and then went on to win the Mares Champion Hurdle at both Cheltenham Racecourse and Punchestown.

Naas Races said: "Ireland play Scotland in the Six Nations Championship at 2:15pm and we will be showing live coverage from Murrayfield on our screens throughout the course."
