Cheltenham is set to stage three days of top-class action as a whole host of established aces and rising stars take to the track at the home of Jumps racing.
The November Meeting is one of the highlights of the National Hunt season and there are 19 contests for fans to enjoy from Friday, November 17 to Sunday, November 19.
We’re once again sponsoring the big race of the fiesta, the Paddy Power Gold Cup, and it looks set to be a hot contest as a pair of winners at last season’s Cheltenham Festival, Stage Star and The Real Whacker, will take their chance.
Persian War winner Captain Teague bids to make it two from two over flights in the Grade 2 Trustatrader Novices’ Hurdle on the opening day, although Friday’s most exciting race looks set to be the Glenfarclas Cross Country Handicap Chase as stablemates Delta Work and Galvin face off once again.
Sunday is headlined by the Greatwood Handicap Hurdle but the meeting between Jonbon and Edwardstone in the Grade 2 Shloer Chase should prove informative for next year’s Champion Chase.
Cheltenham odds can be found on the Paddy Power website and Paddy Power app, otherwise all the key information you need for the November Meeting is below.
