Rabobank Champion Hurdle 2012 Odds - Hurricane Fly Hacks Up
This is without doubt one of the races of the week and brings together some of the very best two mile hurdlers around. Punchestown Festival Day Four promises great excitement. The 2009 race produced a great winner in Solwhit and the top performers here will normally head to the Champion Hurdle at Cheltenham full of good chances as Solwhit did this season after winning here last year.
We know that Hurricane Fly will be back to defend his crown but he will face a top class field of runners in the race this year. Also running in the race are the likes of Menorah who came in 5th in the Cheltenham Champion Hurdle and Thousand Stars who is another top class Willie Mullins horse.
