The major fixture of the day goes at Newbury, where an action-packed card awaits; however, there can be no doubts over the standout race on the programme – the Betfair Hurdle. Our team of horse racing experts and sports betting value hunters cast their eye over the leading names in the ante-post list and return with their views on a shrewd bet that could see you land a blow on the bookies.
Betfair Hurdle
The Betfair Hurdle is a Grade 3 National Hunt hurdle race run at Newbury and open to horses aged four years old and above. Two miles stand between the starting pack and a champion and we’ve enjoyed some memorable renewals over the years. The first recorded running of the Betfair Hurdle took place back in 1963 when Rosyth grabbed a place in the history books when scoring for trainer Ryan Price and jockey Josh Gifford.
That proved to be a winning partnership 12 months later when they successfully defended their crown in 1964. However, John Sutcliffe’s Elan ended that domination next time out, David Nicholson sitting in the saddle.
The contest endured a troubled start as racing fans struggled to take to the event with three of the first dozen races abandoned; however, it went on to become one of the favourites of February’s schedule. Now punters have the fixture marked in their calendar as one to look forward to as it serves as a good indication to how March’s Champion Hurdle might go. Persian War and Make a Stand both won this race before going on to claim the big one at Prestbury Park. Cheltenham fans get your notepads at the ready.
Kalashnikov won this 12 months ago for Amy Murphy and Jack Quinlan; followers of the trends will be interested to know he was the third five-year-old in four years to scoop the prize. This means it’s worth keeping an eye on the age of your pick before trusting it with your stake money. The others on that list are Violet Dancer in 2015 for Gary Moore and Nick Williams’ Agrapart who claimed the prize money for connections in 2016.
