Deloitte Novice Hurdle - Hurricane Fly 11/10 favourite

Pete Culshaw - 13 Feb 2009

New Supreme Novices’ Hurdle sponsors williamhill.com have installed Hurricane Fly as their 11/10 favourite for the Deloitte Novice Hurdle at Leopardstown.

Willie Mullins' charge is currently the 4/1 favourite for the williamhill.com Supreme Novice Hurdle and connections will be hoping that he can cement his place at the head of the Cheltenham market with a victory in Sunday’s Grade 1 contest.

William Hill spokesman Tony Kenny commented: "Hurricane Fly was quite simply awesome on his last start. We think he could be one of the best novice hurdlers that we've seen and on that basis he deserves to be favourite for both the Deloitte and Supreme Novices’ Hurdles.

"Irish trained horses have won seven of the last ten Supreme Novices' Hurdles and it's very possible that we'll see another Festival winner emerge from Sunday's race."
