Albert Bartlett Novices’ Hurdle: Cheltenham Festival 2021 Preview and Tips

Exclusive preview and tips for the Albert Bartlett Novices’ Hurdle at the Cheltenham Festival brought to you by the team at Star Sports. This race has a rich vein of unveiling future stars, with Bobs Worth, Unowhatimeanharry, Penhill, Minella Indo and Monkfish amongst the past ten winners.

STATTLER AND FAKIERA were third and fourth in a Grade 1 at the Dublin Racing’s Festival and both have to be considered the form horses here. ALAPHILIPPE’s wide margin win in the Prestige Novices’ Hurdle showed all the quantities that you’d want in a typical winner of this whilst BARBADOS BUCK’S has improved hand over first for Paul Nicholls. FAROUK D’ALENE’s hard fought defeat of VANILLIER suggested both would be ideal contenders for this test.

JCB Triumph Hurdle: Cheltenham Festival 2021 Preview and Tips

Exclusive preview and tips for the JCB Triumph Hurdle at the Cheltenham Festival brought to you by the team at Star Sports. The juvenile championship at the festival, this kick starts Gold Cup Day.

TRITONIC’s deeply impressive win in the Adonis Hurdle marked him down as the leading British challenger for a race whose betting is dominated by Irish contenders. ZANAHIYR has looked just as good in three wins whilst showing a great turn of foot on each occasion, an QUILIXIOS was strongest at the end of the Spring Juvenile Hurdle and should enjoy the test that Cheltenham provides. FRENCH ASEEL is a fascinating contender, having won his only start over hurdles by 22 lengths at Leopardstown from a subsequent winner.

Paddy Power Stayers’ Hurdle: Cheltenham Festival 2021 Preview and Tips

Exclusive preview and tips for the Paddy Power Stayers’ Hurdle at the Cheltenham Festival brought to you by the team at Star Sports. Won in the past by greats such as three-time winner Inglis Drever and four-time winner Big Buck’s, this year’s renewal looks hotly contested.

PAISLEY PARK was not himself when seventh in this last year, but he has returned right to form this season in two great tussles with THYME HILL in the Long Distance and Long Walk Hurdles. Paisley Park’s extra stamina managed to pull the Long Walk out of the fire but there was only a head between them and the two should be close as ever at the Festival. ROKSANA, an impressive winner of the West Yorkshire Hurdle, was a close third at Ascot in the Long Walk Hurdle before brushing aside her FLOORING PORTER has shown huge improvement to take a big handicap hurdle at Navan and then the Leopardstown Christmas Hurdle when leaving THE STORYTELLER and SIRE DU BERLAIS well behind, and he must be respected in what’s looking like a great renewal.

Ryanair Chase: Cheltenham Festival 2021 Preview and Tips

Exclusive preview and tips for the Ryanair Chase at the Cheltenham Festival brought to you by the team at Star Sports. The middle-distance championship has seen some incredible battles since its introduction in 2005 and this year’s renewals is sure to be just as seriously contested.

ALLAHO was third in the staying novice Championship last season when just running out of stamina after going in a head-to-head duel with Minella Indo, and he put two very moderate runs behind him when taking the Horse and Jockey Hotel Chase at Thurles last time in good style. This trip should suit him around the new course. IMPERIAL AURA was wildly impressive when winning the Novices’ Handicap Chase last year and has followed up those wins with smooth successes at Windsor and Ascot before an early unseat at Kempton last time out. MISTER FISHER won the rescheduled Peterborough Chase here in December and will be a threat on a decent surface, whilst MELON could bid to break his festival duck here.

Marsh Novices’ Chase: Cheltenham Festival 2021 Preview and Tips

Exclusive preview and tips for the Marsh Novices’ Chase at the Cheltenham Festival brought to you by the team at Star Sports. Created in 2011, the 2m5f contest provides an option for horses who may not have the speed for the Arkle whilst wanting to avoid the three-mile trip of the Brown Advisory Chase (also known as the RSA) and has quickly become a favourite of the Irish, who have won all but one renewal.

Long-time favourite ENVOI ALLEN will run for Henry De Bromhead here, with the unbeaten star looking to compete a festival hat-trick after winning the Champion Bumper and Ballymore Novices Hurdle at the past two Festivals. SPORTING JOHN got the better of SHAN BLUE in the Scilly Isles Novices' Chase at Sandown and both should be players on that form, whilst Supreme Novices’ Hurdle third CHANTRY HOUSE and Noel Novices’ Chase winner ALLART give Nicky Henderson two live chances. Fans of a great storyline will be cheering CHATHAM STREET LAD, who romped home in the December Gold Cup here before being beaten dropped back in trip next time.

Brown Advisory Novices’ Chase: Cheltenham Festival 2021 Preview and Tips

Exclusive preview and tips for the Brown Advisory Novices’ Chase at the Cheltenham Festival brought to you by the team at Star Sports. Formerly known as the RSA Novices’ Chase, this is the staying novices’ championship and naturally has a big influence on the picture for next year’s Gold Cup.

Last year’s Albert Bartlett winner MONKFISH has looked absolutely brilliant over fences, showing a stunning turn of foot to put 11 lengths between him and LATEST EXHIBITION in the Flogas at the Dublin Racing Festival. EKLAT DE RIRE jumped into the picture with a game success at Naas last time out whilst the home defence could well be led by dual graded winner NEXT DESTINATION, who showed guts to win the Hampton Chase at Warwick last time - assuming ROYALE PAGAILLE goes to the Gold Cup for the same connections as Monkfish.

This year’s renewal has the looks of a top-quality contest, with Grade 1 winners GAILLARD DU MESNIL, BOB OLINGER and BRAVEMANSGAME at the top of the market. The unbeaten BEAR GHYLLS and DREAL DEAL could be lively outsiders.

Exclusive preview and tips for the Unibet Champion Hurdle at the Cheltenham Festival brought to you by the team at Star Sports. The ultimate test of speed and jumping for the best 2 milers around, the race has seen many classic renewals and brilliant festival moments.

Fans have been looking forward to a potential three-way duel between Irish Champion Hurdle winner HONEYSUCKLE, defending Champion EPATANTE, and GOSHEN, who was incredibly unlucky not to win the Triumph Hurdle at last year’s festival. However, it would be unwise to forget Christmas Hurdle winner SILVER STREAK, who has looked so improved this season.

Sporting Life Arkle Novices’ Chase: Cheltenham Festival 2021 Preview and Tips

Exclusive preview and tips for the Sporting Life Arkle Novices’ Chase at the Cheltenham Festival brought to you by the team at Star Sports. The two-mile novice championship for chasers provides a thrilling spectacle and has often been a sign for future festival greatness, sometimes over longer trips in future.

A potential duel between last year’s Supreme Novices’ Hurdle winner SHISHKIN and Irish Arkle winner ENERGUMENE has got everyone talking, with Henry VII Chase winner ALLMANKIND sure to give the leading pair something to think about in what could be one of the races of the festival.

Put The Kettle On provided a slight surprise at 16/1 last year but this has been a race for the punters - six of the last nine winners returned odds-on.
