Quevega on brink of Cheltenham history

Trainer Willie Mullins believes Quevega could be even better than last year as she bids for her own piece of Cheltenham Festival history this afternoon.

The nine-year-old lines up in the OLBG Mares’ Hurdle, better known as the David Nicholson, a race she will be trying to win for the fifth consecutive year.

If she completes the five-timer, Quevega will become only the second horse since the great Golden Miller to achieve the feat.
