Cheltenham Day 1
Officially billed as Champion Day, the
opening day of the Cheltenham Festival
is packed with top quality. Starting with a
bang as the best young hurdlers clash in
the Sky Bet Supreme Novices' Hurdle.
The Racing Post Arkle crowns the
champion two-mile novice chaser and
the headline race on day one is the
Unibet Champion Hurdle. This race has
been won for the past two years by the
Nicky Henderson-trained Buveur D'Air,
who returns to defend his crown this
year.
