Key Trials from the last 10 years
- The Warwick Mares' Hurdle has thrown up 1 winner and 4 places in the kast 10 years.
- The Warfield Mares’ Hurdle at Ascot is another good quality mares’ race that has thrown up a winner in the last 10 years (Vroum Vroum Mag).
- The Quevega Mares Hurdle at Punchestown was used as a springboard for Apples Jade to go on to win the 2017 Mares' Hurdle.
- The Grade 3 Mares’ Hurdle run at Leopardstown over Christmas has been dominated by Willie Mullins in recent years and his Concertista, who is ante-post favourite for the 2021 Cheltenham contest, was a very impressive winner of that.
- Honeysuckle, winner of the race in 2020, is one of the classiest ever winners of the race as she went to Cheltenham on the back of an Irish Champion Hurdle success.

Trainer Trends
- Willie Mullins has dominated this race since its inception in 2008, training nine winners and also having 14 placed-runners.
- Henry De Bromhead (2020), Dan Skelton, Gordon Elliott & Donald McCain have trained the other three winners. The first-named will once again have a huge chance if his star mare Honeysuckle turns up.

Jockey Trends
- Given the record of Willie Mullins in this race, it goes without saying that his stable number one, Paul Townend, will have a great chance. Townend has partnered Concertista, ante-post favourite for the Mares’ Hurdle, on her two starts in Ireland this year but she was ridden by the owner’s retained rider, Dary Jacob, when she won the mares’ novice race at last year’s festival.
- Harry Skelton is another jockey worth noting with a winner (Roksana in 2019) and a place from four rides in the race.
How did the trends do last year?
Honeysuckle fit the bill regarding most of the key trend data and her official rating of 158 put her right up there with some of the great mares to have run in this race like Apple’s Jade and multiple winner Quevega.

Who Fits The Trends Best In 2021?
It could easily be a case of déjà vu in the Mares’ Hurdle if both Honeysuckle and Benie Des Dieux turn up for the gig once again because they have a such a class edge on the best of the home challengers.
Benie Des Dieux has a number of options over hurdles or fences the Mullins team also have improving mare Concertista for this race. She fits the bill trends wise and is a previous Cheltenham Festival winner to boot.
