The meeting runs for four days, beginning on Tuesday, March 11, 2025, and running until today - Friday, March 14, 2025. There are seven races each day, with the first at 1.20pm and the last at 5.20pm at Prestbury Park.

We have reached the final day of the 2025 Cheltenham Festival and what a week it has been so far as we have truly experienced the highs and lows of national hunt racing. Galopin Des Champs takes centre stage in the Gold Cup on Friday as he bids to become one of the all-time greats by winning the race for a third year in a row.

THE REAL WHACKER probably found the ground a bit too slow when he tackled this event last year. He showed in November that he has retained his ability when winning the Charlie Hall and he confirmed this with a fourth place in the King George. If he gets the race run to suit he is capable of a place – at a big price.

After three spellbinding days at the Cheltenham Festival we arrive at the biggest of all. God Cup day is the very peak of jump racing and this year we have suitable storyline to match the occasion within reach.

It's the star-studded culmination of the Cheltenham Festival 2025 with Gold Cup Day at Prestbury Park. The showpiece race will be the crowning glory of the four-day racing spectacular at 4pm today (Friday, March 14).

A flurry of snow has fallen on Cheltenham Racecourse ahead of the second day of The Festival. Thousands of racegoers are anticipated to descend on Prestbury Park for Style Wednesday later. Temperatures of around 1C (34F) brought snowfall to Cheltenham and wider Gloucestershire,
