Quote:
The Jonjo O'Neill-trained More Of That outstayed Annie Power up the famous Cheltenham hill to claim the Ladbrokes World Hurdle.
Tony McCoy appeared to have dealt a hammer blow to More Of That's chances a couple of weeks ago by choosing to ride At Fishers Cross, who eventually finished third, but punters were not deterred, however, and he was sent off the 15-2 third-favourite in the hands of Barry Geraghty.
Plenty still held chances at the bottom of the hill, but it was left to the two unbeaten young guns to fight it out, with More Of That, having just the fifth run of his life, powering up the hill to glory.
