CHELTENHAM FESTIVAL 2025

3 months 1 day ago - 3 months 1 day ago

Good morning, everyone!

Will the punters be celebrating or left in tears after this year’s festival?

The Irish invasion is set to begin, with Willie Mullins leading the charge! 🇮🇪🏇

📺 Watch the build-up:



Festival Highlights
Expect short-priced favourites, some massive-priced winners, and exotics that could deliver big payouts!

We’re still awaiting the final fields, but daily updates will be available.

Tuesday, 11th March
🔹 Supreme Novices’ Hurdle – Kopek Des Bordes looks strong to get punters off to a flying start.

🔹 Arkle Chase – Majborough looks impossible to oppose.

🔹 Champion Hurdle – Brighterdaysahead takes on Constitution Hill in what could be the race of the festival! The Mullins duo, Lossiemouth and State Man, add to the mix – but will Lossiemouth go the easier Mares’ Hurdle route?

Wednesday, 12th March
🔹 Turners Novices’ Chase – The New Lion vs Final Demand in what should be a thrilling battle.

🔹 Brown Advisory Novices’ Chase – Ballyburn looks the one to beat.

🔹 Champion Chase – Jonbon remains ultra-consistent and could prove too strong.

Thursday, 13th March
🔹 Ryanair Chase – Fact To File vs Il Est Français (Molly’s fancy).

🔹 Stayers’ Hurdle – Teahupoo looks the best in a highly competitive field.

Friday, 14th March
🔹 Triumph Hurdle – East Indian Dock (Molly’s tip) vs Lulamba.

🔹 Mares’ Chase – Dinoblue looks strong.

🔹 Gold Cup 🏆 – Galopin Des Champs to prove he’s one of the greats!

Good punting & best of luck! 🍀💰

For the best banter, you can’t beat Paddy Power:

Every race on the opening day is named after Micheal O’Sullivan the jockey who lost his life a few weeks ago.

Txs for inputs 

Very sad about young Michael and the Supreme Novice to start the meeting in his honour 

It looks like Lossiemouth going for Mares after Paul stuck with State Man 
Brighterdaysahead should give Constitution Hill a good race and should be one of the best races  of the week 

Mullins should get off to a flyer at least a treble

Stay out of the races with the odds on runners as they are almost certainties unless you want to play exactas and trifectas ( if available ), that’s on the first day. Bookies need the punters back to get their money back as the week progresses. Day 1 will belong to the punters
