Jasmin De Vaux added to last year’s Champion Bumper success when staying on strongly to strike in the Albert Bartlett Novices’ Hurdle at Cheltenham.

Paul Townend gave the six-year-old a patient ride but came through smoothly to take control entering the home straight.

Market leader The Big Westerner threw down a strong challenge at the final flight but 6-1 chance Jasmin De Vaux maintained his advantage on the run-in to prevail by two and a half lengths and give trainer Willie Mullins his fourth win of the day.
