Tom Cavendish - 28 Apr 2009

Hurricane Fly's impressive success at Punchestown this afternoon prompted Coral to cut him to clear 5-2 favourite from 6-1 to win next year's Champion Hurdle.

This year's beaten Champion Hurdle favourite Binocular is the 13-2 second favourite with the reigning champion, Punjabi, a 12-1 chance.

"Hurricane Fly put up a true Championship performance both in terms of style and substance this afternoon and he looks a worthy ante post favourite for next year's Champion Hurdle", said Simon Clare, Coral Spokesman.
