Ruby's Festival Fancies - Cheltenham 2022 (Day 3 Tips)
| Time | Thursday Races | Ruby's Day 3 Tips | Place Bet |
| 13:30 | Marsh Novices' Chase | It's a match between Galopin Des Champs and Bob Olinger. Galopin Des Champs is faster and a brilliant jumper. |  |
| 14:10 | Pertemps Network Final | Alaphilippe had a really good run at Warwick last time out in January. | |
| 14:50 | Ryanair Chase | If Allaho runs anything like he did last year, that should be more than enoughto win again. | |
| 15:30 | Paddy Power Stayers' Hurdle | The better the ground gets after Wednesday's downpour, the better the chance of Champ. | |
| 16:10 | Plate Handicap Chase | The Glancing Queen has impressed over fences this season. She can win this. | |
| 16:50 | Mares Novices Hurdle | Party Central is a closer and has a real chance, but I'm going to side with Grangee in an EW punt. | |
| 17:30 | Kim Muir Challenge Cup | "I'm a fan of School Boy Hours. He ran a blinder in the Paddy Power Chase at Leopardstown in December. | |
