Punjabi can beat rivals Sublimity and Harchibald but who are the other two that can come out on top today?
ACCBank Champion Hurdle
In a race that primarily concerns Sublimity, Harchibald and Punjabi, preference is given to the
last-named performer. He was one of last season's top juvenile hurdlers and he has made the transition to genuine top flight performer this season, finishing third in the Champion Hurdle at Cheltenham last time.
He is proven at this trip and track and one suspects that if it comes down to a battle, he will emerge on top at the expense of his two main market rivals.
Land Rover Champion Novice Hurdle
Fiveforthree is sure to be better suited by thislonger trip, but having disappointed over 2m just
three days ago, it is difficult to be bullish about his prospects.
Preference is therefore given to the Noel Meade-trained Rinroe, a promising sort that bounced back from a disappointing return from a winter break to win in game fashion on the Flat at the
Curragh 12 days ago.
His talent is unquestioned, but it is his ability to handle this firmer going that is
the main doubt surrounding his chance. However, his current price is big enough to warrant taking a chance on him.
Star Best For Racing Coverage Novice Hurdle
In what is an immensely competitive event, preference is given to the Joanna Morgan-trained Raise Your Heart. An unexposed hurdler, he gives the impression that he barely stays 2m in testing conditions and he did win a maiden in such circumstances back in
January.
He encountered a firmer surface for the first time over hurdles last time and he ran a race full of
promise in what was a very strong handicap hurdle at Leopardstown. He looked to be travelling very well indeed early in the straight but was hampered on more than one occasion before keeping on to finish never nearer. That run entitles him to have a great chance
in this contest and he can be confidently supported at what is a value price.

ya yuvraj singh is dashing in the midd pinch-hitter in the middle and hits the ball hard with the bat and is a evil-player for other players around the world especially the srilankans and the australians and the englishmen especially when he chased 325 in natwest series in 2002 and six sixes he hit in 20-20 world cup.super kings is busy with dhoni while punjab is running with yuvraj while ganguly is acting with kolkatta.this shows the power india has in batting order.sehwag always hits 6es and fours when batting at top-order.
