The Cheltenham Festival may be coming to an end – but don’t worry because Paddy’s already got you covered for 2025!
His trusty traders have already priced up antepost odds for next year’s big races at Prestbury Park, so if you’ve got an early fancy you can get going on building your portfolio.
Several of this week’s winners will be looking to return for consecutive triumphs, but there’s likely to be a few surprises too.
You can run the rule over all our Cheltenham Festival odds on the Paddy Power website and Paddy Power app, otherwise, here’s everything you need to know about the big races in 2025.
*All prices are bang up to date with our snazzy widgets, while odds in copy are accurate at time of publishing but subject to change.
Champion Hurdle
After missing this year’s event, Constitution Hill is hoping to return in 2025 and leads the antepost betting. Next year’s contest could be incredibly competitive with this season’s winner State Man, Mares’ Hurdle heroine Lossiemouth and Gallagher Novices’ Hurdle scorer Ballyburn all potentially in opposition.
Champion Chase
Despite an early fall on Wednesday, El Fabiolo is Paddy Power’s antepost favourite for the Champion Chase to make amends ahead of this year’s Arkle Chase winner Gaelic Warrior. Jonbon was withdrawn from the Festival this year but appears on the list for this one.
Paddy Power Stayers’ Hurdle
This year’s winner Teahupoo was backed greatly and it’s expected to be the same next year. Champion Hurdle runner-up Irish Point is one to watch on this list, while French fancy Theleme could make the trip across the English Channel.
Cheltenham Gold Cup
Brown Advisory Novices’ Chase winner Fact To File has been touted as a future Gold Cup winner and leads the antepost betting ahead of Galopin Des Champs.
