Cheltenham Festival 2022 leading jockey, trainer and owner ahead of day 4

Paul Townend is the leading jockey going into the final day of the Cheltenham Festival, despite parting company with Galopin Des Champs in the first race yesterday.

Townend was distraught after Galopin Des Champs fell at the last flight with the Turners Novices Chase at his mercy after an scintillating front-running display.

But Willie Mullins' no 1 stable jockey bounced back in the very next race as Allaho retained his Ryanair Chase crown in impressive fashion.

Townend leads the Holland Cooper Leading Jockey Award from three jockeys on two winners - Nico de Boinville, Patrick Mullins and Rachael Blackmore.
