Teahupoo silk
Teahupoo
Selected at: 15/8

Teahupoo is probably the best horse in the staying hurdle division at the moment but he doesn’t always fire at Cheltenham. Here at Punchestown however, he has a much better record and the nine-year-old looks well set to win this race for the third consecutive year.
