Cheltenham Festival 2024 Preview Night!
Racing TV's Must-Watch Video Captures the True Magic of Cheltenham!
As the greatest four days in sport draw near, we can feel the excitement building for the Cheltenham Festival, the ultimate celebration of National Hunt racing. And to kick things off in style, we're thrilled to announce our virtual Cheltenham Festival Preview Night, set to take place on Zoom.
Get ready to meet our stellar panel of experts. Leading the pack is the legendary Mr. Peter Scudamore, a titan of the sport with an impressive 13 Cheltenham Festival victories to his name, including two Champion Hurdles and a Queen Mother Champion Chase. Joining him is Michael Scudamore, the mastermind behind Next Sensation's thrilling Grand Annual win in 2015 at 16/1, ridden to victory by none other than Michael's brother, Tom Scudamore. And completing our trio is Ella McNeill, Racing Manager for the powerhouse McNeill Family Racing, who've had a stellar season with an impressive 20 wins already. Ella also presents for Raceday TV, the social media arm of Racing TV, and is the NH Manager for Chelsea Thoroughbreds. With 10 top-class entries, could this be the year for the first McNeill family festival winner? They definitely have a chance.
Our panel is packed with trainers and connections from previous successes who have lots of exciting chances for this year's festival. Join us for an hour packed with lots of information, whether you have a few fancies and want to know a bit more or you are just looking to be pointed in the right direction! Grab a notebook, as there are sure to be some interesting pointers along the way. We will go through the chances from the Lucinda Russell Racing (soon to be Russell-Scudamore Racing) yard as well as the McNeill family’s chances.
We'll be covering a wide range of topics, including the highly anticipated Grade 1 Novice Hurdles and the Champion Hurdle. Will Constitution Hill turn up? , the Queen Mother Champion Chase, can Jonbon reverse the form or is El Fabiolo just too good? Does Edwardstone deserve an each-way chance? We will discuss the Brown Advisory and Turners Grade 1 Novice Chases, the Ryanair, and the Stayers Hurdle. Plus, we'll delve into the excitement surrounding the 100th edition of the Gold Cup, among much more, finishing with some notable handicappers and some of our festival fancies.
Join us for an evening filled with anticipation and excitement, just one week before the magic of Cheltenham unfolds. We'll see you there!
