The final day at Cheltenham Festival is the feature day of the week, Gold Cup Day. Another packed crowd will be in attendance to see who lands the valuable coveted Prize with the best staying chasers in Britain and Ireland going head to head.

The day starts with the Triumph Hurdle, a race that has been dominated by Willie Mullins in recent years. The master trainer has won three of the last four renewals, including last year with the impressive Lossiemouth.

The Cheltenham Gold Cup takes centre stage for the final day – day 4 of the meeting. Galopin Des Champs was last year’s winner, doing it in tremendous style. He will line up again and bid to retain his crown, but could face a serious challenge from the likes of Gerri Colombe and Bravemansgame.

For those who love a competitive betting heat, the County Hurdle will be the race to watch, with the Martin Pipe Conditional Jockeys’ Handicap another to get excited about to conclude the 2024 Cheltenham Festival.


What percentage of Favourites win at Cheltenham?

Every punter loves to defeat the bookies and a favourite winning at the Cheltenham Festival is always met with delight within the stands.

In the last ten years at the Cheltenham Festival, favourites have won at a 30% strike rate. Given that field sizes are often bigger than they are throughout the season, it is no surprise that this is slightly down on average.

As a track, favourites often do better over fences at Cheltenham. In the last five seasons, 45% (48/106) of favourites have won races at any Cheltenham meeting over the larger obstacles, compared to 37% over hurdles (36/98) and just 21% in bumpers (5/24).

Cheltenham Betting Tips: How to Read a Form Guide

When selecting your Cheltenham Festival 2024 bets you might want to consider key components such as trainer and jockey. However, the previous form counts for plenty when considering your next Festival flutter, especially at the Cheltenham Festival.

The form shows a horse’s performance in its previous races and is seen by many punters as an indication of a horse’s future performance and the chance of winning when contesting its next race. On a race card, the form will be highlighted next to each individual runner in a race, it is normally arranged as a line of numbers denoting finishing positions or certain abbreviations. The form on a racecard runs from left to right, with the oldest races on the left and the most recent performances on the right. Below is a quick and easy guide on how to read the form and what you should look out for when selecting your next wager:

  • A number between 1-9 indicate the position the horse finished in the race
  • A 0 indicates that the horse finished outside the first 9 positions in a race
  • The symbol separates racing seasons. Form figures before the are from the previous campaign.
  • P or PU indicates that the horse was pulled up by the jockey and did not complete the race
  • F indicates the horse fell during the race
  • R indicates a horse refused to race
  • BD indicates the horse was brought down by another runner in the race
  • U or UR indicates that the horse unseated its jockey during the race
  • C indicates a horse has won at that particular course before
  • D indicates a horse has won over that distance before
  • CD indicates a horse has won over both the course and distance
  • BF stands for beaten favourite and indicates a horse was favourite for a race last time out but failed to win
