The Albert Bartlett Novices’ Hurdle is one of the big races on the final day of the Cheltenham Festival.

It is one of the newer contests on the schedule, having been inaugurated in 2005 when Cheltenham bigwigs added a fourth day to the schedule, but it has already thrown up some smart winners including subsequent Gold Cup hero Minella Indo in 2019.
