There is nothing like form over course and distance and that it has been proved time and time again with the likes of Baracouda and Inglis Drever who we sadly lost this year, that the winner of this race can come back and repeat their success and so Big Bucks is the odds on favourite for the race this year.
The first horse to make a real impact on the 2010 World Hurdle form is Diamond Harry, after a cracking weight-carrying performance at Haydock Park in the valuable 3m Handicap Hurdle at the end of November but after getting beat by Big Bucks in the Long Walk he went the Novice Chase route.
The Long Distance Hurdle saw Big Bucks put up a really nice performance and he is the banker of the the 2010 festival, he beat Karabak this day who is second favourite for the race.
Sentry Duty won on New Years Day at Cheltenham in likeable fashion and this has now seen his odds tumble for the big race in March.
Tidal Bay emerged as an interesting outsider for the race by winning the cleeve hurdle on trials day, the ante post world hurdle betting now reflects this.
