Cheltenham Festival 2021 is here!
The Cheltenham Gold Cup is run over a distance of 3 miles and 2.5 furlongs. There are 22 fences that have to be cleared by the elite horses. It is the big Friday race of the Cheltenham Festival and arguably the most exciting. The Gold Cup is the most valuable non-handicap chase in Britain and has been won in the past by Arkle, Best Mate, Golden Miller and Kauto Star. The new course has been run since 1959 and creates a huge challenge to the jockeys.
The most successful horse in Gold Cup history is Golden Miller who won 5 consecutive Gold Cup's in the 1930's!
