The Kingwell Hurdle is one of two important Champion Hurdle trials to be run at Wincanton Racecourse, the Elite Hurdle kicking the season off in November while the Kingwell takes place in February each season.
Run under similar conditions to the Champion Hurdle in that there are eight hurdles to take over a two-mile trip, the Kingwell Hurdle is a Grade 2 affair and has been won over the years by several high-profile horses looking to become the champion hurdler.
Horses of the calibre Desert Orchid, Kribensis, Hors La Loi III, Azertyuiop, Rhinestone Cowboy, Inglis Drever, Katchit, Binocular and Zarkandar of have all been successful in this race over the years.
In the first six years of this race since its inauguration in 1971 there were only two winners, racing greats Bula and Lanzarote both taking three runnings each in succession meaning all of the first six Kingwell Hurdles went the way of trainer Fred Winter.
