Champion Hurdle, Cheltenham Festival The 2010 Cheltenham Festival Cheltenham Festival 2010

Cheltenham is where National Hunt racing settles its arguments. Four days in the middle of March, on an undulating course under Cleeve Hill in Gloucestershire, decide the season's championships: the Champion Hurdle, the Queen Mother Champion Chase, the Stayers' Hurdle and the Cheltenham Gold Cup.

Attendance runs above 220,000 across the four days. The meeting's defining sound is the Cheltenham roar when the tape rises on Tuesday's opening race, and what gives it force is the Irish presence: much of the crowd has crossed the sea for it.

01重要な理由

This is the championship meeting of jump racing, the branch of the sport with the deepest hold on Britain and Ireland. In our reading its importance is social as much as sporting: no other British meeting has a genuinely bi-national crowd.

02前後の週

Cheltenham, a Regency spa town of 116,000, absorbs a crowd larger than itself: hotels across Gloucestershire and into the Cotswolds are taken at multi-night minimums, and shuttle buses link town and course all day.

03到着時期

Tuesday and Friday matter most and are hardest to get into; arrive Monday evening and leave Saturday morning.

04宿泊先

Cheltenham town center is the obvious choice, a forty-minute walk or short shuttle from the course; the Cotswold villages give you a better week if you have a car.

05アクセスとホスピタリティ

The Jockey Club sells enclosure admission across the four days — Best Mate, Tattersalls and Club — plus restaurants, boxes and packages, with annual badge schemes carrying priority. Demand exceeds supply for Tuesday and Friday.

06社交活動の場

The Guinness Village on course is the meeting's genuine center; beyond it, the Parade Ring lawn and the terraces above the finish. In town, the Montpellier bars and the Promenade hotels.

07アクセス方法

民間航空Birmingham and Bristol are each about an hour by road.
鉄道Cheltenham Spa from Paddington in about two and a quarter hours, with shuttle buses to the course.
車M5 junction 10 or 11; car parks are sold in advance.
プライベート航空Gloucestershire Airport at Staverton, five miles away.
ヘリコプターThe racecourse operates a helicopter landing area, among the busiest in British racing.

08実用情報

服装Cheltenham is a country meeting in March and dresses like one: there is no formal dress code in the general enclosures, and the convention is tweed, a wool overcoat and boots that handle mud. The Club enclosure and hospitality areas apply a smarter standard with denim restricted, and hats are optional throughout.
天気Mid-March in Gloucestershire is cold, often wet and frequently windy; the course sits under Cleeve Hill and is exposed, and going can change dramatically across the four days.
市内での移動Rail to Cheltenham Spa with a shuttle bus is the most reliable route; departure after the Gold Cup is the worst hour of the week on the roads.
ホテルThe tightest hotel market in British racing outside Royal Ascot week, with rooms held a year ahead.
レストランThe racecourse runs a large restaurant and box programme sold as hospitality; the town's better restaurants book months ahead.
予約時期Tickets go on general sale in the autumn, with badge holders given earlier access; hotels near the course are booked a year out.
チケットDay tickets by enclosure plus four-day packages are sold through the Cheltenham Racecourse site and a ticket line; under-18s are admitted free with a paying adult, and parking is sold separately.
ホスピタリティRestaurants, private boxes and packaged experiences are sold directly with published inclusions; the annual badge schemes carry priority access, though they are open to anyone who joins.

09沿革

The meeting traces to 1860 and the National Hunt Chase, which settled at Prestbury Park from 1911. The championship races followed: the Stayers' Hurdle in 1912, the Gold Cup in 1924, the Champion Hurdle in 1927, the Queen Mother Champion Chase in 1959. It grew to four days in 2005.

10参加者

Owners, trainers and stable staff from the British and Irish jumping yards; a very large Irish travelling public; the betting industry and professional punters; and a devoted racing public.
