Robbie Power’s Cheltenham 2020 Day 3 Tips – Mares’ Novices’ Hurdle

Robbie Power joins us from Cheltenham to give his best bets for the Mares’ Novices’ Hurdle on Day 3 of the 2020 Cheltenham Festival.

4.50 Mares’ Novices’ Hurdle

Another top-class mare in here for Henry de Bromhead in Minella Melody. She was very impressive when she won a very competitive mares’ hurdle in Fairyhouse.

My ride, Dolcita, was 3rd on that occasion. She was very impressive when she won her maiden in Tramore. I thought she looked a bit inexperienced that day in Fairyhouse and I think she’ll get a lot closer to Minella Melody this time.

Wherever Minella Melody finishes, I’m hoping Dolcita won’t be far away. She definitely has a good each-way chance but Minella Melody definitely sets a high standard.

Best Bet: Minella Melody (11/4)
