2015 Champion Hurdle
The 2015 Champion Hurdle was a horse race held at Cheltenham Racecourse on Tuesday 10 March 2015. It was the 85th running of the Champion Hurdle.
Eight horses started the race, the lowest number in more than 30 years. The winner of the race was Faugheen, a seven-year-old gelding ridden by Ruby Walsh and trained in Ireland by Willie Mullins.
==The contenders==
Four of the eight runners were considered serious contenders for victory. Faugheen had won the Baring Bingham Novices' Hurdle at the previous year's festival and extended his unbeaten run with victories in the Ascot Hurdle and the Christmas Hurdle. The seven-year-old Jezki was back to defend the championship he had won in 2014, as was the eleven-year-old Hurricane Fly who had won the race in 2011 and 2013. Jezki and Hurricane Fly had already met three times that year, with the older horse winning on each occasion. The New One, a somewat unlucky third behind Jezki in 2014, was considered by far the best two-mile hurdler in England after winning his last five races. The other four runners were Arctic Fire, who had divided Hurricane Fly and Jezki when finishing second in the Irish Champion Hurdle, Vaniteux (runner-up to The New One in the International Hurdle), Kitten Rock (winner of his last four races including the Red Mills Trial Hurdle) and Bertimont (runner-up to The New One in the Champion Hurdle Trial). Faugheen started the 4/5 favourite ahead of The New One (100/30), Jezki (6/1) and Hurricane Fly (8/1).
