Mares' Hurdle betting tips

Now in its second year, the Grade Two David Nicholson Mares’ Hurdle has attracted 33 entries, including eight from Ireland.

Heading the possible field is last year’s heroine Whiteoak (3/1 Ladbrokes), who made such a promising return to action at Wincanton on February 14.

Newmarket handler Lucy Wadham has yet to train a Festival winner but has high hopes for her stable star United (4/1 Ladbrokes), who is swerving the Ladbrokes World Hurdle to contest the David Nicholson Mares’ Hurdle.
 
The eight-year-old, who finished fourth to Inglis Drever in the 2008 Ladbrokes World Hurdle, has won her last two outings, most recently in a Grade Two contest at Ascot on January 17 when she was successful by five lengths.

The out and out favourite remains Quevega (5/2 Bet365) who had an impressive Punchestown comeback victory.
