The roar of the crowd as the tapes rise for the first race of the Festival each year tells you everything you need to know - 12 months of waiting for the pinnacle of Jump racing is over! It is every owner, trainer and jockey's dream to have a winner at the Cheltenham festival, and this is your chance to witness the ultimate in Jumps racing.

Virtually every top Chaser and Hurdler is aimed at the Festival from the start of the season and, for jumps racing fans too, all roads lead to Cheltenham in March. Racegoers from across Britain and Ireland return year after year for a meeting guaranteed to provide a host of magic memories.

The feature race on Tuesday is The Smurfit Kappa Champion Hurdle, the most sought after prize anywhere for 2 mile hurdlers.

Wednesday sees the Seasons Holidays Queen Mother Champion Chase take centre stage, as the best two mile chasers produce a fast and furious contest over the famous Cheltenham fences. For many, this is the most exciting race of the year and Master Minded produced one of the greatest performances of the modern era to claim victory in 2008 before repeating the feat in 2009- the superstar will be sure to try to defend his crown again this year.

Thursday is the famous Ladies day, and also the day the long distance hurdlers contest The Ladbrokes World Hurdle where only the brave and the strong prevail. Thursday also features the Grade 1 Ryanair chase.

Then comes Friday and the highlight of the entire Jump season: the totesport Cheltenham Gold Cup. The most saught after prize in jump racing, the pinnacle of achievement in the game, and the most emotional and encapsulating race in Britain.

Apart from the big races, the novice events for Hurdlers and Chasers are championships in their own right, while the handicaps are among the most fiercely contested races in the Jumps season.

The racing, the famous Cheltenham roar, the Irish craic, the picturesque backdrop of the Cotswolds – nothing can beat four days at the Festival. Make sure to book early to avoid missing out on this great event!
