English Hope Heads
Irish-Dominated Champion Hurdle Entry
Detroit City heads a list
of 28 entries for the Smurfit Kappa Champion Hurdle, a race
that has been dominated by the Irish in recent years and
this year features 17 entries from the other side of the
Irish Sea.
Defending Champion Brave
Inca, who has already recorded two grade 1 successes this
season in the Ballymore Properties Hattons Grace and the
bewleyshotels.com December Festival Hurdle, spearheads the
Irish list that also includes dual winner Hardy Eustace and
Noel Meade's quartet of Iktitaf, Harchibald, Jazz Messenger
and Sweet Wake.
William
Hill make Detroit
City their 9-4 favourite for the two mile showpiece with
last years winner Brave Inca their 7-2 second favourite and
Hardy Eustace, Iktitaf and Macs Joy the 10-1 joint third
best.
Ben Clarke of William Hill
added: "Irish horses, and in particular Brave Inca, have
been finding their form recently and they will fancy their
chances but in Detroit City we finally have a horse that
could dominate the hurdling scene for many years. His
performances over the past 12 months have been faultless and
he is a worthy favourite to emulate Rooster Booster and
bring the Champion Hurdle crown back to England."
