Triumph Hurdle Ante Post Odds

The Triumph Hurdle Ante Post Odds sees a new addition in the form of Celestial Halo for the Paul Nichols stable who stole the show in the Batwick Tyres Juvenile Hurdle on Saturday. Celestial Halo did hurdle well enough after hitting the second and being careful at the third, warming to his task and he won just pushed out with plenty left in the tank. But it was only when both Prideus and Light Yield got bogged down in the ground that he cleared away between the last two. Early in the straight as five jumped the third last alongside his main opponents and at this point victory was far from certain but he went away to win by a clear 14 lengths.

This race was not a patch on the one Franchoek won at Chepstow earlier in the week but his connections means he is now only two points in the betting behind Franchoek. This price is mainly due to his class from the Flat. Punters are only going to get one more evaluation before he lines up for the Triumph but the impression, along with his St Leger seventh, was that despite being a half-brother to My Branch, this much more imposing individual needs a tougher test of stamina and the rush of the Triumph could take him off his feet despite his class.

Paul Nicholls' Celestial Halo made a big impression on his hurdling debut at Newbury and was slashed from 14-1 to 7-1 second favourite for the Triumph Hurdle by VC Bet.
