The final day of the 2025 Cheltenham Festival kicks off this afternoon.
The final day of the 2025 Cheltenham Festival takes place this afternoon with the jewel of the week, the Boodles Gold Cup, kicking off at 4pm.
The Willie Mullins-trained nine-year-old would become the first Irish-trained horse since Arkle in 1966 to capture three Gold Cups and only the fifth horse of all-time to achieve the feat and the first since Best Mate in 2004. He’s been the outstanding staying chaser of his generation and it would be one of the shocks of the week were he not to complete the hat-trick.
Indeed Dinoblue will be hoping it’s third time lucky at Cheltenham having also finished runner-up in the 2023 Grand Annual Chase.He won impressively at Ascot last month on his debut for Henderson having won on his only French start in October for previous connections. He looks to be crying out for a step up to three miles having been second and third in two Grade 1 races behind Final Demand at Leopardstown and stablemate and the Bective Stud owned The Yellow Clay at Naas.
