Hight heads Triumph entries
Ante-post favourite Mister Hight heads a field of 17 runners in the JCB Triumph Hurdle at the Cheltenham Festival on Friday.
Willie Mullins’ four-year-old has transferred his Flat ability over to hurdles and is unbeaten in two starts, the second of which came in the Grade Two Cashmans Juvenile Hurdle at Leopardstown in February.
All the other leading fancies have stood their ground including the Philip Hobbs-trained Detroit City, Afsoun from Nicky Henderson’s yard, Paul Nicholls’ Turko and First Row for Dessie Hughes.
