Coral’s own jumps racing ambassador Tom Scudamore rode Un Temps Pour Tout (12/1) home to claim the Ultima Handicap Chase. Favourite Our Sam (7/1) finished way down the field, while dual Festival winner Holywell (9/1) came second.

After falling in the Mares’ Hurdle while leading at the last in 2015, to the despair of many, 5/2 favourite Annie Power smashed home to land the Champion Hurdle – setting a new course record along the way.

It's third time lucky for Annie Power at #TheFestival who jumped brilliantly to win the Champion Hurdle https://t.co/swMxEyY4WQ

Vroum Vroum Mag lived up to her 4/6 odds-on favourite tag to win the Mares’ Hurdle to hand Mullins a hat-trick of victories on the day. Our own Simon Clare called it!

TIP OF THE DAY: @SiClare goes for Vroum Vroum Mag in the 4.10 race here at #CheltenhamFestival pic.twitter.com/gx0jdFo6HE

Loyal Coral customers certainly profited from our offer today after Mullins’ triple success!

Be honest then, who's had our pants down with today's Mullins winners? #ShowTime pic.twitter.com/7xEXvnpuEE
