Cheltenham Festival is underway at Prestbury Park this week as 28 races all over four days trap an entire bunch of hundreds of punters to the racecourse.
Tuesday opens with Champion Day and all eyes are on Nicky Henderson’s unbeaten Structure Hill, while closing one year’s winner Honeysuckle goes for glory in the Mares’ Hurdle for what could per chance successfully be her ultimate race.
Wednesday is Females Day and St Patrick’s Day falls on Thursday, sooner than the Festival’s enormous climax with the Gold Cup on Friday.
British trainers will be out for revenge after taking a heavy beating to their Irish counterparts closing one year, conceding the Prestbury Cup one year ago with elegant 10 wins in comparison with 18 Irish victories.
The paunchy race results from Cheltenham Festival 2023 will be updated beneath.
