The Albert Bartlett Novices’ Hurdle is the 2:50pm Grade 1 race, which punters love to strike gold in, building momentum for the Gold Cup. A race that was won 3 times by AP McCoy, it’s synonymous with horses with a turn of speed, but big hearts to get the 3 mile trip. Bobs Worth won this in 2011 and used the race as a platform to build a top-notch career over fences. The Nicky Henderson trained superstar, went on to win the 2012 RSA Chase and the 2013 Cheltenham Gold Cup. 2016 saw Unowhatimeanharry win the Albert Bartlett and Harry Fry’s stable star went on to dominate the stayers category in 2017 and went off favourite in the 2017 Stayers Hurdle. Willie Mullins trained Penhill defeated the impressive Monalee to win this in 2017, whilst 2018 and 2019 renewals have seen outsiders Kilbricken Storm and Minella Indo deliver for the bookmakers.
With anything up to 20 runners across recent renewals, online bookmakers payout the standard 3 places each way at 1/4 odds or more commonly 1/5 odds for this championship hurdle.
