Cheltenham Festival, Tuesday

JLT Specialty HandicapChase (Grade 3) 3m½f, 5yo+

Quote:
ALFIE SHERRIN, advised by Pricewise at a colossal 25-1 on Tuesday morning, gave jockey Richie McLernon a first Cheltenham Festival success at the 42nd attempt.

Racing in the second colours of owner JP McManus, Alfie Sherrin was settled in mid-division by McLernon as Fruity O'Rooney and Pentiffic set a frantic pace from the off.

Cheltenham Festival, Tuesday

OLBG Mares' Hurdle (Registered As The David Nicholson Mares' Hurdle) (Grade 2) 2m4f, 4yo+

Quote:
SUPERMARE Quevega claimed her fourth consecutive success in the David Nicholson Mares' Hurdle under a typical stalking ride by Ruby Walsh.

The Willie Mullins-trained eight-year-old joins an illustrious list of horses, including the great Golden Miller, who have won the same festivalrace on four occasions.

Cheltenham, Tuesday

Glenfarclas Handicap Chase (Cross Country Chase) (Class 2) 3m 7f cross country, 5yo+

Quote:
THE Philip Hobbs-trained Balthazar King (11-2) snapped Ireland's seven-year domination of the Cheltenham Festival cross country race.

But it was a close call, as he gamely held the spirited challenge of A New Story (20-1) who won the corresponding race two years ago. Third was Wedger Pardy (33-1) who forced much of the pace.
