Friday is Day 4 of the Cheltenham Festival and it’s also St. Patrick’s Day. The way Ireland has dominated at the Festival so far, you would think every day had been St. Patrick’s Day. With this in mind, you can expect plenty more Irish-trained winners on the final day. Willie Mullins will again be the Emerald Isle’s leading hope and we’ve put his three best chances into a tasty 19-1 treble.

If you want more information, free bets or betting tips and advice throughout every day of this year’s Cheltenham Festival, then take a look at the following:
Lossiemouth has looked like a smart filly since coming over from France. She won two graded races before losing her unbeaten record in unfortunate circumstances in a Grade 1 at Leopardstown last time out. With a bit more luck here, she can reaffirm her status as the best juvenile hurdler around.
Galopin Des Champs is perhaps the most exciting horse in training and he’s an absolute monster. He would have won the Turners Novices’ Chase by a distance here last year if not for his dramatic last fence fall. The seven-year-old has gone on to win the John Durkin and the Irish Gold Cup in good style. There is only one thing that can stop him winning here and that is the 3m2f trip with the stiff uphill finish. If he has the stamina, he wins this with ease.
Allegorie De Vassy is a worthy favourite for this race and her owner has been very vocal about how confident the team are. Unbeaten in two starts over fences, she won both by wide margins. There is a concern that she jumps right at her fences which is a problem on this left-handed track. If she can straighten up her jumping, it’s hard to see what can beat her in this race.
