Nicholls set on world rule with Buck's

Big Buck’s became an unlikely contender for the World Hurdle at the Festival when scoring on his debut over timber for Paul Nicholls and Ruby Walsh at Cheltenham.

World Hurdle sponsors Ladbrokes introduced the six-year-old at 14-1 for their race after he impressed in outstaying Don’t Push It by a length and three-quarters in the Unicoin Homes Handicap Hurdle.
