See the full Day 3 preview below from Stephen Harris, including full race schedule, predictions and bettingexpert tips. Stephen Harris' Daily Tips bettingexpert's resident Horse Racing Editor and Hall of Fame tipster Thursday has a very Irish feel to it as Cheltenham celebrates St. Patrick’s day, albeit a few days early. The day kicks off with the JLT Novices’ Chase, which often produces a top class performer to follow over the next few years in the highest class. The Ryanair Chase is always an interesting contest, one of the more recent additions to the festival programme, it sits very much as a back up to the championship races. For all that it can often be seen as one of the weaker Grade Ones, it boasts some strong alumni including Imperial Commander, Dynaste and Cue Card. Don Cossack couldn’t justify favouritism in 2015, giving way to what turned out to be AP McCoy’s final Cheltenham Festival winner, Uxizandre. Ryanair Chase winners need speed and fluency, losing just a length at any fence can have a devastating consequences.
