The 2012 World Hurdle looks to be at the mercy of defending champion Big Buck's and the nation's leading bookmakers will be looking to duck the legendary staying hurdler ahead of the Cheltenham Festival.
Last year's winner will head to Prestbury Park looking to make it a remarkable fourth consecutive success in the Grade One showpiece and you can get 9/4 on the odds-on shot.
Strictly on the form, Big Buck's looks to be the biggest certainty at this year's meeting and he looks sure to add to his fifteen consecutive victories since 2009.
The superstar hasn't looked back since he was left to dominate the hurdling division and his power-packed displays and slick jumping have left him in the winner's enclosure every time he has run over the smaller obstacles.
Big Buck's has been odds on in each of his last twelve races and his twenty career wins have earned his connections over £1 million in prize-money.
Quotes coming out of the Nicholls stable would suggest he is in the form of his life ahead of the Grade One showpiece and with Ruby Walsh set to take the ride it is looking highly likely that the money will continue to arrive for the superstar.
The bookies are taking no chances and have priced up Paul Nicholls' nine-year-old gelding at 4/7, almost half the odds on offer when he won the same race last year (10/11) or the year before (5/6). In fact, Big Buck's has been odds on in each of his last twelve races.
But now is your chance to back the superstar at odds against and Bettingpro.com have managed to get hold of an exclusive offer which sees Big Buck's available to back at 9/4 for the 2012 World Hurdle.
One thing is for certain, if Big Buck's does win at the 2012 Cheltenham Festival then the bookmakers could be facing a bumper payout if punters placed their bets using Bettingpro's sensational offer.
