The 3.20pm at Cheltenham on Day One is the much-anticipated Champion Hurdle. At the head of the market sit three word-class hurdlers in Hurricane Fly, Menorah and Peddlers Cross. The Champion Hurdle odds are the tightest we are likely to see all week.

Our preference would be for Hurricane Fly, who has been solid as ever this season – although admittedly yet to face a stiff challenge. Back the horse with Boylesports who are offering money back if your horse finishes 2nd when you sign up via Gamble Select.
