He’ll be staying hurdling next season as well,” the champion trainer added.“I thought Final Approach ran a very good race for a five-year-old and we’ve yet to make a decision on him for next season.” Read our Paddy Power review Get your £250 free bet at Paddypower Like Like Post to wall 197 Reads All Cheltenham Festival News Recent Cheltenham Festival Articles 2012 Ladbrokes World Hurdle race replay - Big Buck's makes Cheltenham history15 Mar 2012Watch a replay of the 2012 Ladbrokes World Hurdle race replay, which was won for a fourth successiv Big Buck's on the drift ahead of 2012 World Hurdle15 Mar 2012We’re just hours away from Big Buck’s bid for a fourth consecutive World Hurdle and the superstar h Ladbrokes offering 4/5 that Big Buck's wins the Ladbrokes World Hurdle15 Mar 2012Sponsors Ladbrokes are offering an industry best price of 4/5 on Big Buck's winning the 2012 World Big gamble on Thousand Stars to win Ladbrokes World Hurdle15 Mar 2012Thousand Stars was heavily backed for the World Hurdle on Thursday morning, especially with bookmak Bet Victor offering 8/11 on Big Buck's in World Hurdle15 Mar 2012Big Buck's is the hot favourite to win the 2012 World Hurdle but Bet Victor are taking him on by of Ladbrokes World Hurdle best price on every runner at Ladbrokes15 Mar 2012Get the best odds on the World Hurdle at Ladbrokes today – guaranteed!
