No Newcastle for Harchibald
Noel Meade has ruled Smurfit Champion Hurdle runner-up Harchibald out of this weekend’s Pertemps ‘Fighting Fifth’ Hurdle at Newcastle.
The six-year-old landed the Grade One contest by two lengths 12 months ago and is one of 19 entered in this year’s renewal after finishing third in Sunday’s Morgiana Hurdle at Punchestown.
