Champion Hurdle - 15:30

Reports from the track this morning are soggy, wet, nasty. You name it. So we need to quickly ask who that suits.

For a tight betting heat in the Champion Hurdle, the short answer could very well be Laurina could be the biggest beneficiary on the day. In a race widely expected to be fought out by three hot favourites in the market it could be crucial, and while the money has already started coming this morning, you can still pick up 3/1 about this Ruby Walsh mount which could look very long come 3:45 this afternoon.

While Buveur D'Air has been here and shown it before, and Apple Jade has shown some tremendous form over the season already, that may just be distracting people from a horse who has already looked every bit a super hero here before and can run a huge race. We could be ready to welcome a new favourite to the crowds here, and I'm aboard at 3/1. Willie Mullins has already won this five times before don't forget.

2pts Laurina to win at 16/5 (Betfair) - 3/1 also acceptable
