The Cheltenham Festival is one of sport’s most enthralling extravaganzas and in 2013 the nation will once again be swept by horse racing fever as gamblers and racing fanatics prepare to embark on an unrivalled path of excitement.

Preview of Day 1

Supreme Novices Hurdle

Each year the Cheltenham Festival gets underway with the Supreme Novices’ Hurdle, a race greeted by the famous roar from the crowd that tells us that four days of exhilarating horse racing action has finally begun.

Raced at a distance just over two miles the Supreme Novices’ Hurdle is run at a frantic pace and it almost always gets the Festival off to a bang. A big field will tackle the race and some future stars of the hurdling and chasing world will be in action.

Arkle Challenge Trophy

The second race of the Festival, the Arkle is run over the demanding Cheltenham fences at a distance of two miles. The ultimate test of speed and fluent jumping, it is almost always run at a frenetic pace and it almost always goes to one of the classiest horses in the race.

This means that shocks are a rare occurrence, but this year’s race should be wide open, with a number of superstars looking to follow in the footsteps of Sprinter Sacre - last year’s winner.

Hill Trophy Handicap

One of the most competitive races of the Festival, the Hill Trophy Hanidcap is a war of attrition fought out by a huge field of experienced jumpers.

The sort of race that is more than likely to throw up a big priced surprise, a victory here puts the winner in the picture for the Grand National the following month. That was the case in 2007 when Joes Edge landed the Handicap at odds of 50/1 before being sent off favourite for the Aintree showpiece.

Champion Hurdle

The highlight of the first day’s racing at the Festival is the Champion Hurdle, the Grade one showpiece run over two miles that often confirms who is the champion of the hurdling division.

A large field of superstars almost always goes to post and there is a form candidate everywhere you look, something that certainly seems to be the case in 2013.

Hurricane Fly will be back to try and win back his crown after Rock On Ruby powered to victory in the race in 2012, but will Willie Mullins’ Irish raider be back to his best?

Cross Country Handicap Chase

A different dimension to the Festival, this cross country event is as competitive as anything else on the card. Trainer Edna Bolger has had such a strong grip on the race he has managed to win it on a number of different occasions.

It will be interesting to see who the trainer saddles in this year’s race, but it would take a brave man to bet against him picking it up after he lost out to Balthazaar’s Gift in 2012.

David Nicholson Mares Hurdle

Only introduced onto the card in 2008, the David Nicholson Mares Hurdle gives four year old (and above) Mares the chance to battle it out to see who is the Queen of the first day of Cheltenham’s meeting.

A great addition to the Festival, this year’s renewal could see Quevega back in search of yet another success in the showpiece.
