Quevega bids to rule World once more

QUEVEGA is likely to bid for back-to-back victories in the ladbrokes.com World Series Hurdle at Punchestown on May 5.

Although trainer Willie Mullins has given the talented mare an entry in the Rabobank Champion Hurdle the previous day, the longer race is the preferred target after she won the David Nicholson Mares’ Hurdle for the third successive year at Cheltenham.

“Quevega will be going for the three-mile hurdle, I think,” said Mullins.
