Here are 5 things we learned from day three of the Cheltenham Festival

MULLINS IN A LEAGUE OF HIS OWN

It was all change at the top after Willie Mullins became the winning-most trainer at the Cheltenham Festival thanks to a double on day three. Having drawn level with Nicky Henderson following the victory of Penhill in the Stayers' Hurdle, the Closutton handler moved to the summit after Trull House Stud Mares' Novices' Hurdle heroine Laurina gave him a 61st Festival success. With Mullins well represented in every race on Friday, there is every chance that tally will increase.
