When Binocular won the Listed Betfred "Keep It Fun" Contenders Hurdle at Sandown en route to Champion Hurdle glory four years ago, he was officially rated at 171.
Garde La Victoire (11-4) came into the extended two-mile event, traditionally a major Champion Hurdle trial and won in the past by the likes of Sea Pigeon, Lanzarote and See You Then, on a mark of 154, b ut that did not stop the top weight from following up his Greatwood Hurdle success, getting the better of an epic duel with Jollyallan (7-4) from the penultimate flight
