The Albert Bartlett is one of those races introduced 16 years ago when the festival went from 3 days to four. Run over 3 miles and 12 hurdles. Of the 16 renewals 15 had won or placed in a graded novice hurdle, the only exception was last years winner Monkfish who had no graded form at all. The leading trainer is Jonjo O’Neill who has a 100% record of 2 for 2 whilst Mullins also has 2 wins but not the percentage. Both of Mullins runners that won had won last time out.

Cheltenham Timeform 1-2-3 Three year Trends Day 4 Race 2
The County Handicap Hurdle has been won by just two trainers in the past 6 years Willie Mullins and Dan Skelton and with the exception of Wicklow Brave in 2015 the winning horses have either won or placed last time out. There is no particular pattern to any previous race as “last time out” ranges from 418 days to 6 days as in the case of the aforementioned Wicklow Brave.
Saint Roi was the 1st favourite to win last year in ten years but we need to note that Mullins was having a ball and Saint Roi was heavily backed in from 6/1 to 9/2 eventually drifting out to its S.P. of 11/2.

Cheltenham Timeform 1-2-3 Three year Trends Day 4 Race 1
The Triumph Hurdle is the opening race of Gold Cup day and the Spring Hurdle seem to be a popular proving ground with 5 of the last 10 winners having placed or won this event the previous month at Leopardstown. No one trainer has won this race more than twice in the last 10 years and Gordon Elliott certainly won’t be making it 3 this year. Hendersons’ 2019 win with Pentland Hills was his second but only because Goshen threw the race away.

The Fulke Walwyn Kim Muir Challenge Cup Amateur Riders Handicap Chase was formerly run on day two but was moved to day 3 in 2009 and is now run on the new course from its original running on the old course. If this race is run this year, professional jockeys will take up the reins as our government is pathetic!! Anyway here are the last 3 years Timeform 1-2-3 stats.

Cheltenham Timeform 1-2-3 Three year Trends Day 3 Race 5
The Brown Advisory & Merriebelle Stable Plate Handicap Chase is a bit of a mouthful but for this year Paddy Power has taken over the sponsorship. The first running of this race in 1951 ended in a dead heat and as far as I can discern is the only dead heat at the festival. Perhaps someone can put this right if not. It would be a great pub quiz question if it is!
