Anglo Irish Hurdle Classification 2013
Sat, May 25th, 2013
The British & Irish handicappers have made Hurricane Fly (175) the outright champion for 2013 in the 2 Mile Hurdle division. He had been joint champion with Rock On Ruby in 2011-12. His rating is the second- highest since Classifications began, just short of Istabraq's consecutive ratings of 176 in 1999-00 and 2000-01.
Big Buck's (174) missed most of the season through injury but remains Champion in the 2 1/2 Mile + Hurdle category for the fifth consecutive year following his defeat of Reve De Sivola in the Sportingbet Long Distance Hurdle at Newbury in December. Next in the division is wonder-mare Quevega (167), winner of the David Nicholson Mares' Hurdle for a fifth consecutive time. She shared second place with Zarkandar (167) winner of the Grade One John Smith's Aintree Hurdle in April.
The Novice Hurdlers are led by Nigel Twiston-Davies' The New One (165) winner of the Neptune Investment Novices' Hurdle at the Cheltenham Festival, however on the figures his best performance came in the form of a ½ length defeat to Zarkandar in the Grade 1 Aintree Hurdle. This is the second highest Novices' Hurdle rating since classifications began, behind only 2003 Sefton Novices' Hurdle victor Iris's Gift (167).
Our Conor (161) was deemed the highest-rated Juvenile Hurdlers in the history of the Classifications for his 15 length demolition of the Triumph Hurdle field at Cheltenham. The previous holder of this title was the much-loved Katchit (159) who went on to claim the Champion Hurdle in his following season.
