Ladbrokes World Hurdle Results

Pertemps Final Handicap Hurdle

The feature race of Day three of the Festival was the Ladbrokes World Hurdle and it was Kasbah Bliss who went to post as the favourite among the 14 runners.Whatuthink was the horse to take up the early running

With three fences left you could throw a blanket over them and it was soon the market leaders in the betting that came to the front. Punchestowns was the first horse to make a run for victory and he was chased by Big Bucks and Kasbah Bliss. Hot favourite Kasbah Bliss had nothing in the tank and quickly faded so it was left to Big Bucks to battle it out with Punchestowns. Big Bucks made a slight error over the last but that was not enough to stop him as he went past Punchestowns to claim victory. Powerstation went past Kasbah Bliss to claim a good third place.

1. Big Buck's (Ruby Walsh) 6-1
2. Punchestowns (Barry Geraghty) 100-30
3. Powerstation (Andrew McNamara) 25-1
