Recent winners of the Turners have almost always arrived in strong form. Only four winners this century failed to win last time out, and the last ten all came here having won their previous two races. Proven quality also matters, with fourteen of the last seventeen winners already successful in a graded hurdle before the Festival.
Age has been a strong guide, with ten of the last twelve winners aged six, and winners are rarely over-raced, as none of the last eleven had more than three hurdle runs that season. Irish-trained runners have dominated, winning ten of the last twelve renewals, while horses starting at bigger prices have struggled, with only one of the last eighteen winners returning at odds above 8/1.
The Turners Novices’ Hurdle is run over 2 miles and 5 furlongs at Cheltenham on the New Course.
The race is restricted to novice hurdlers, meaning horses in their first season over hurdles. It regularly attracts some of the leading middle-distance novice hurdlers from Britain and Ireland.
Yes, it is a Grade 1 contest, which means it is run at level weights and represents the highest class of National Hunt racing for novice hurdlers.
While both races are for novice hurdlers, the Turners is run over a longer trip, so it tends to suit horses with proven stamina rather than out-and-out two-mile speed.
Yes, many past winners have progressed to open Grade 1 company and have later competed in races such as the Champion Hurdle or Stayers’ Hurdle.
