The biggest races include The Champion Hurdle, Queen Mother Champion Chase, The World Hurdle and the biggest of them all, The Cheltenham Gold Cup.

The Gold Cup, taking place on the Friday is the highlight of the week and involves the cream of the crop in horse racing. This three mile and two Grade One is the most valuable non-handicap of the National Hunt, with the total prize money standing at a whopping £575,000.

Runners this year include last year’s champion Vatour, along with Don Cossack, trained by two of Ireland’s most successful trainers Willie Mullins and Gordon Elliot respectively and both are considered strong favourites to take the crown.  In fact, the Gold Cup is dominated by the Irish this year, with Willie Mullins also entering Djakadam.
