As the winner of the 2002 Cheltenham Festival Stayers Hurdle, Baracouda went off a short priced joint-favourite for the 2003 event. He didn't disappoint his many horse racing backers and Baracouda became the first horse to successfully defend his title since 1988. Thierry Doumen pushed Baracouda to the head of the field shortly before the final fence and despite winning by less than a length you always had the impression there was another gear available if he came under more pressure. Berhard Geraghty continued his fine Cheltenham Festival Form taking second aboard Iris's Gift and on the evidence of this performance could be worth looking at in 2004. Limestone, the other joint favourite came in a well ran third place with the final furlong just being too much for him.
