Dazzling Faugheen just Champion.

Faugheen was the star of the show in the Stan James Champion Hurdle as he headlined an amazing Willie Mullins four-timer on the opening day of the Cheltenham Festival.

It was always going to take something special for Ruby Walsh to give up the ride on the record-breaking Hurricane Fly, but after leading from pillar to post in the championship event, it was clear just why he did.
Sceaux much to admire in Arkle hero.

Un De Sceaux fulfilled the promise he has shown all season by producing an electric performance from the front to demolish his rivals in the Racing Post Arkle Trophy at Cheltenham.

Although facing early competition for the lead from Dunraven Storm and Sail By The Sea, the 4-6 favourite soon had his own way at the head of affairs under Ruby Walsh as he burnt both horses off with his high cruising speed and slick jumping.
