The son of Nigel Twiston-Davies will ride four-times winner Baby Run, owned by his father, in the Christie's Foxhunter Chase at Cheltenham.
Twiston-Davies, 16, combines race-riding with studying for his GCSEs at the Cotswold School in Bourton-on-the Water.
He started riding in point-to-point races this season and gained his first victory aboard Grenfell, trained by his mother Cathy, at the Cambridgeshire Harriers Hunt Club meeting in December.
Twiston-Davies' two time Grand National winning father said the teenager would be aboard Baby Run at the Festival.
"It's lovely to see him riding and he's doing really well," said the Naunton trainer.
"He rides out before he goes to school and he wants to be a jockey."
Will the 16 year old overcome odds of 66/1 from Betfred to claim victory? It's a longshot against favourites Cappa Bleu (11/2 from Sportingbet) and Juveigneur (6/1 from Ladbrokes)
