Cheltenham Festival 2021 LIVE results: Rachael Blackmore wins with Allaho - Day Three racing as it happened

Cheltenham Festival - LIVE!

We’re over halfway through the meet as the action on the track continues to excite at The Greatest Show on Turf.

Day two saw Tiger Roll, well, roll back the years as the 11-year-old dual Grand National winner returned to his best form to storm to a fifth Cheltenham Festival victory and his third in the Glenfarclas Chase.

That was after Bob Olinger and Monkfish underlined their favourite tags by cleaning up earlier in the day. Heaven Help Us at 33-1 surprised many in the Coral Cup.

Today, Paisley Park failed in his attempt to regain the Stayers' Hurdle title, finishing third behind winner Flooring Porter and Sire Du Berlais.

Hot favourite Envoi Allen fell early in the opening Marsh Novices' Chase, with Chantry House winning a thrilling race for Nicky Henderson.

Mrs Milner triumphed in the Pertemps Final and Rachael Blackmore enjoyed more success on board Allaho in the Ryanair Chase before The Shunter took the Festival Plate Handicap Chase.

Blackmore rode a fifth winner in Telmesomethinggirl in the Mares’ Novices’ Hurdle before Mount Ida won the Kim Muir Challenge Cup.
