Celebrate Cheltenham with great coverage and reader offers in your Daily Mirror

IT is the greatest show on turf – and the 2024 Cheltenham Festival is about to deliver four days of the very best sport. There’s no better companion for this iconic festival than your Daily Mirror.
It’s the 100th Cheltenham Gold Cup on Friday. So, we’ve joined forces with William Hill to give you a £2 free bet, which you could stake on the blue-riband race, plus 8 pages of packed pullout content!

With all eyes on the Gold Cup at 3:30pm on Friday, let’s look at some key contenders:

• · Galopin Des Champs – Last year’s winner is back to defend his crown. He warmed up for Cheltenham with a stylish victory in the Irish Gold Cup.
• · Shishkin – A quirky type who has won the Supreme Novices’ Hurdle (2020) and the Arkle (2021) at the Festival before.
• · Bravemansgame – Chased home Galopin Des Champs in the race last year after jumping the last fence alongside the eventual winner.
• · Hewick – Stayed on powerfully to land the King George on Boxing Day and looks to write another incredible chapter in his racing career.

• Fastorslow – Runner-up in last year’s Ultima, who has since beaten Galopin Des Champs on two of their three meetings.

So don’t miss out on any of the Cheltenham action this year - pick up your Daily Mirror for everything you need to make the first big meet of the year epic.
