IT’S CHAMPION HURDLE day as the 2022 Cheltenham Festival begins today.
There’s plenty focus on the favourite Honeysuckle, last year’s champion for Henry de Bromhead and Rachael Blackmore, and still unbeaten after 14 races.
With further wins this season in the Hatton’s Grace Hurdle at Fairyhouse and the Irish Champion Hurdle at Leopardstown, can Honeysuckle be stopped?
