Folly to oppose Faugheen in Champion Hurdle

Well, at least reading the front-page story of the Racing Post on Tuesday, it seems that off-course bookmakers are literally trembling in their boots.

The trembling has to do with the possibility of four Willie Mullins-trained favourites winning on the opening afternoon of the Cheltenham Festival next Tuesday.

Apparently this might even be the end of the racing world as we know it and the damage it could do to the poor old devils has left many of us praying that at least one of the hotpots gets stuffed!
