Cheltenham Champion Hurdle Winners<\/h3>\n

Legends from the golden age of the Champion Hurdle include Bula, Comedy of Errors, Night Nurse, Monksfield, Sea Pigeon, Dawn Run, and See You Then. In more modern times, but before 2016, Istabraq, Hardy Eustace, Hurricane Fly and Faugheen stand out as notable winners.<\/p>\n

From 2020 to 2024, Cheltenham Festival odds<\/a> betting favourites have won the race.<\/p>\n

A four-year-olds only Premier Handicap added to the Festival in 2005, this race is often won by precocious or well-handicapped horses that don’t go for the Triumph Hurdle.<\/p>\n

Festival Hunter Chase<\/h3>\n

The Hunter Chase at the Festival with horses usually ridden by amateur jockeys. The race is over the same extended 3m 2f course and distance as the Gold Cup. Inaugurated in 1904, there are strict qualifying criteria. For example, a horse must have won a Point-to-Point and finished first or second in a hunter chase.<\/p>\n

Halloween, the 1951 winner, went on to land the King George. Grittar (successful 30 years later) was a subsequent winner of the Grand National.<\/p>\n
