2026 Warwick Mares Hurdle Betting Odds at Warwick racecourse

Saturday, 07 February 2026

There are a handful of horses trading at single figure betting odds when it comes to the Warwick Mares' Hurdle on Saturday. Paul Nicholls saddles the favourite and Jubilee Alpha is a fierce competitor who looked impressive on her latest outing. The seven-year-old will be tough to beat although the form of Good Girl Kathleen has been bright.

The Emmet Mullins-trained runner has produced a string of bright performances this term, with Kingston Queen having won on a seasonal debut. David Pipe's six-year-old has been in the winners' enclosure on a number of occasions, with La Pinsonniere returning to the track after previously running well for Nicky Henderson last term.

2026 Warwick Mares' Hurdle Betting Tips

Jubilee Alpha has run three times this season and has yet to record a victory. However, that hasn't stopped the horse racing betting sites from making her favourite to win the Warwick Mares' Hurdle. Paul Nicholls saddles a horse that finished second at Sandown last time out. The 9/5 favourite lost out to Nurse Susan over two miles and four furlongs in the Unibet Mares Hurdle.

Previously to this, there was a midfield finish at Cheltenham in December although perhaps Good Girl Kathleen could be a decent shout. She's a bigger-priced alternative who keeps hitting the frame on a regular basis. Emmet Mullins last saw his charge scoring at Cork in December over three miles, half a furlong. There was also a September win at Listowel.

Kingston Queen could go well over two miles and five furlongs, with David Pipe saddling a horse who looks a nice each-way option. The horse was last seen running well at Cheltenham in December when scoring third place in a field of ten runners. However, there's a slight concern that the horse was a good fifteen lengths off the pace in that outing.

La Pinsonniere returns to the track after nearly a year and Nicky Henderson will hope she is able to hit the ground running. In April 2025, the horse was less than two lengths behind Jubilee Alpha at Cheltenham and a repeat of that effort could see the mare go close. The month before this, the runner was second at Newbury in a big field.

Gala Marceau was second in her last outing, finishing seven lengths behind Lossiemouth at Punchestown in early May, with this being a strong performance over two miles, four and a half furlongs. There was previously a decent outing at the Cheltenham Festival last year where the horse achieved a midfield finish in the Close Brothers Mares’ Hurdle.

West Balboa is a more experienced campaigner and could come through with the spoils at the age of nine. Last time out at Kempton, there was a fourth-placed finish in a Mares’ Handicap Hurdle over the festive period, with a decent showing taking place at Aintree when the horse claimed third spot in the William Hill Handicap Hurdle.

You Wear It Well struggled in her most previous outing, with the horse finishing last out of four horses when trailing by twenty-six lengths at Windsor in January. However, there was a decent effort when running at Warwick in December, with the horse being sent off as odds-on favourite before falling short.

The same horse previously ran in the Mares’ Hurdle at the Cheltenham Festival although there was a seventh-placed finish out of eleven horses, with plenty of other big-priced runner set to line up. The pick of these could be Dameofthecotswolds and the five-year-old has bagged a number of wins this season.


2024 Warwick Mares' Hurdle Tips

You Wear It Well heads up the racing betting market and the seven-year-old looks like the one to beat based on the evidence of this season. The horse was last seen finishing second out of five runners in a mares’ hurdle at Doncaster Racecourse, with the runner only narrowly beaten by favourite Marie’s Rock.

The most notable recent victory came at Wetherby at the beginning of November, with the horse able to land the spoils against five other rivals which included Luccia. However, some punters might be warned off backing this horse considering the horse finished a long way behind Not So Sleepy in the Betfair Fighting Fifth Hurdle.

Theatre Glory can’t be easily ignored, with the horse trading as second favourite to land a victory in this contest. Nicky Henderson will have the runner primed to run a big race, with the runner having registered a third place on a seasonal reappearance although subsequent outings have been far from convincing.

Dan Skelton has Get A Tonic operating and the eight-year-old did land an impressive win at the beginning of December, with this coming as a 28/1 shot at Newbury, although the horse then returned to the track trading at odds of 100/30 and didn’t manage to make the required impression, with the runner finishing fourth out of six runners.


2023 Warwick Mares Hurdle Tips

Can anyone beat Love Envoi in the 2023 Warwick Mares Hurdle? The seven-year-old has secured back to back victories at Sandown Park, with the horse landing a victory in a handicap hurdle on 3 December. This was followed up by a comprehensive thirteen-length win in a mares’ hurdle at the same track, although this race is due to be a stiffer test against more quality opposition.

Love Envoi is a high grade animal and she proved this at the Cheltenham Festival last March when the horse was able to win the Mares’ Novices’ Hurdle. However, the horse was beaten into second by Brandy Love and that eight-length defeat at Fairyhouse means that we could consider other runners in the race, with customers considering each-way alternatives.

One of those horses is West Balboa, with Dan Skelton having three horses in the race although this one seems like the main contender. The runner produced the goods in the Lanzarote Hurdle at Kempton Park when Bridget Andrews gave her a tremendous ride, with that coming over two miles and five furlongs. You would have to argue that she looks better value than the favourite.

Theatre Glory could yet come to the fore, with the six-year-old running a fair race last time out when securing third place in a handicap hurdle at Kempton Park. We didn’t learn a huge amount from her previous run when unseating a rider earlier in the race at Newbury Racecourse at the end of November.
