Cheltenham Festival: Bob Olinger battles to dethrone Stayers’ Hurdle champ Teahupoo

Bob Olinger maintained his flawless record when storming up the hill to take the Stayers’ Hurdle under Rachael Blackmore.

Henry de Bromhead’s 10-year-old was seemingly the second string for owners Robcour, with their reigning champion Teahupoo the 7-4 favourite for Gordon .

It was those two involved in the finish as Jack Kennedy rode the latter, but after they locked horns jumping the last, it was Bob Olinger who came out on top by a length and three-quarters to triumph at 8-1.
