Katchit
Katchit (23 February 2003 – 9 January 2013) was an Irish-bred, British-trained Thoroughbred racehorse, the peak of whose flat racing and hurdling career came in 2008 when, against the odds, he won the Champion Hurdle at the Cheltenham Festival. Katchit was a moderate flat racer, winning only once in sixteen races. In his first two seasons as a hurdler however, he showed great improvement, winning ten times between September 2006 and March 2008. He won the Triumph Hurdle in 2007 and the Championship a year later. No Triumph Hurdle winner had gone on to win the Champion Hurdle since Persian War in 1968, and 73 five-year-olds had been beaten in the race since See You Then registered the last five-year-old success in 1985. His later career was affected by injury and he never won again.
==Background==
Katchit was a small bay horse with an irregular white star, bred in Ireland by the Whitley Stud. He was sired by the Breeders' Cup Turf winner Kalanisi out of a mare named Miracle. As a yearling, the colt was sent by the Irish-based Corduff Stud to the Tattersalls sales at Newmarket in October. He was bought for 15,500 guineas by the bloodstock agents Equine Services and entered into the ownership of Tim Corby. He was sent to be trained as a flat racer by Mick Channon.
