Horse Racing Accumulator Tips: Daily Cheltenham Festival Treble
THURSDAY
BACK OUR ENHANCED ACCA WITH SKY BET
- CAPTAIN MORGS to be placed (first 6) in the Pertemps Final
- SHISHKIN to win by 3 lengths or more in the Ryanair Chase
- LUCCIA to win the Mares’ Novices’ Hurdle
Selection available until start of 2.10 race
Ts&Cs apply - max bet £20
It could be a super Thursday for trainer Nicky Henderson and Shishkin is his headline horse on day three of the Festival.
The nine-year-old was back to his brilliant best when storming home to win the Ascot Chase last month and that level of performance sets a very warm standard in this year’s Ryanair Chase. A clear-cut success looks on the cards here.
Earlier on, Henderson has three with chances in the Pertemps Final Handicap Hurdle and course and distance winner Captain Morgs looks the one to focus on. He has classy form over shorter trips and really relished the step up to three miles las time out.
The Henderson treble can be rounded off by star mare Luccia. She’s looked something special in her two hurdle appearances at Newbury and Exeter and can be safely backed to see off the Irish raiders in this field.

FRIDAY
- Willie Mullins to train 1-2-3 in Triumph Hurdle - Money Back as Cash offer does NOT apply
- Allegorie De Vassy to win Mares’ Chase
- Spanish Harlem to finish in first 4 in the Martin Pipe
Ts&Cs apply - max bet £20
Selection available until start of 1.30 race
Gold Cup day at Cheltenham is all about the Festival’s winning-most trainer Willie Mullins and it’s not just the feature race in which he is well represented.
First up it’s the JCB Triumph Hurdle and Mullins has a seriously strong hand here including the highly promising Blood Destiny, plus the one-two from the big race at the Dublin Racing Festival – namely Gala Marceau and Lossiemouth.
He’s got seven in total and can claim the clean sweep by saddling a sensational 1-2-3.
Win, lose or draw with Galopin Des Champs and Stattler in the big one on day four, Mullins will also be very hopeful of adding to the Friday tally courtesy of classy mare Allegorie De Vassy in the Paddy Power Mares’ Chase.
She had to miss the Festival last season after impressive hurdling wins at Fairyhouse and he’s taken to fences well this term. Her jumping has been a little extravagant at times but a strongly-run race on easy ground will suit her well.
The concluding Martin Pipe Conditional Jockeys’ Handicap Hurdle is wide open but Patrick Mullins has been very open with how much he thinks Spanish Harlem is well handicapped and the five-year-old novice should be going very close (first 4) from a mark of 135 under rising star of the weighing room, Michael O’Sullivan.
