Vinndication Plummets For Cheltenham Novice Hurdles

Vinndication’s odds for his Cheltenham targets have been more than slashed in half after winning the Sidney Banks Memorial Novices’ Hurdle at Huntingdon on Thursday.

The Kim Bailey-trained novice comfortably saw off a late challenge from Western Ryder at Huntington to maintain an unbeaten record and was immediately supported to follow up with a win at this year’s Festival.

The five year-old had been a 33/1 shot in the Albert Bartlett market before Thursday’s race, but plummeted into 16/1 following the 3¼ length victory.

Our traders are expecting this price to dry up sooner rather than later.

He is now also a 16/1 shot in the Ballymore Novices’ Hurdle for which Samcro remains odds-on favourite at 4/5.
