Faugheen investigation likely to come to nothing

So, the British Horseracing Authority is investigating betting patterns regarding the withdrawal of Willie Mullins’ Faugheen from the Champion Hurdle in March.

Mullins broke the news on February 17, that Faugheen would miss the race, just under four weeks prior to the Champion Hurdle being run.

Apparently, Faugheen drifted on the exchanges from 1-2 to odds against, before his withdrawal was announced.
