Gordon Elliott got off the mark at the Cheltenham Festival when Wodhoohjustified favouritism with a game display in the Close Brothers Mares’ Hurdle.
The six-year-old won the last race of the meeting, the Martin Pipe Conditional Jockeys’ Handicap Hurdle, 12 months ago and proved a welcome tonic for her handler once again after some disappointing reversals in the opening two days of the meeting.
Sent off the 5-6 market leader in the hands of Jack Kennedy after two impressive victories this term, she demonstrated her class to hold off last year’s runner-up Jade de Grugy up the run-in and strike at the highest level for the first time.
