Henry De Bromhead congratulates Rachael Blackmore after her win on Bob Olinger in the Stayer's Hurdle at Cheltenham 2025
Waterford trainer Henry De Bromhead trained two winners for jockey Rachael Blackmore at Cheltenham on Thursday and helped the Tipperary woman to a major milestone.
Air of Entitlement was first up on Thursday, winning the Mare's Novices' Hurdle under Blackmore before Bob Olinger landed a huge gamble in the feature race, the Stayer's Hurdle.
The wins completed the full house of the Cheltenham festival's five modern championship races, as well as the Aintree Grand National, for Blackmore and De Bromhead. Together at Cheltenham, they have now won the Champion Hurdle, Champion Chase, the Gold Cup, Stayer's Hurdle and Ryanair Chase.
