Cheltenham Betting & Odds at William Hill
The Cheltenham Festival is the pinnacle of the National Hunt season. Spread across four days of high-class racing action in the middle of March, the Festival is packed with Grade 1 fixtures and a broad mix of competitive, challenging handicaps.
Cheltenham is one of the most spectacular and highly attended racing festivals in the UK. The excitement of the meeting really starts to build up at the turn of the new year, with form becoming crucial in shaping the entries for the Festival.
The Festival Races
The highlights of the opening day of the Cheltenham Festival on a Tuesday are the Supreme Novices’ Hurdle and the Champion Hurdle. That latter is one of the biggest races at the entire festival, and a fixture that’s been won by greats like Honeysuckle and Constitution Hill.
Wednesday is Ladies’ Day at Cheltenham, and the intensity of the Queen Mother Champion Chase is the race of the day. There’s always a big St Patrick’s Day celebration on Thursday when the Ryanair Chase and the Stayers’ Hurdle draw big attention.
Then on Friday, the anticipation of Gold Cup day reaches its peak. Cheltenham Gold Cup betting sees punters racing to study the form cards of the top chasers from the UK and Ireland, who will then battle it out for one of the most prestigious prizes in National Hunt racing.
Gold Cup Odds & Betting
Speculation over who will be the next winner of the Cheltenham Gold Cup happens almost as soon as the current year’s edition is in the books. Greats like Galopin Des Champs, Al Boum Photo, Kauto Star and Denman have been popular winners of the great race.
There is always a special atmosphere at Cheltenham Racecourse for the big festival, and Cheltenham betting at William Hill covers all the ante-post markets for the big races, along with up-to-the-minute board prices on the day of the race.
Cheltenham Festival 2026
Before racing fans know it, the 2026 Cheltenham Festival will be commanding everyone’s attention, as the famous action at the Gloucestershire course once again swings into action. The four-day spectacle will run from March 10 - 13th, 2026, featuring 28 races and an abundance of the top racing talent from the UK and Ireland.
Whether you are a hardened punter looking for the latest Cheltenham odds or just a casual fan getting caught up in the excitement of Cheltenham betting, the electric atmosphere and abundance of Grade 1 races make this top racing festival unmissable.
Keeping Fresh
The Cheltenham Festival boasts a rich history which goes back to the mid-1800s. It has maintained its high status by remaining relevant and modern, such as the move to its current four-day format in 2005, putting more races and more horses on show.
Spread across the four days of racing, there are 14 Grade 1 headline-grabbing contests, including the Cheltenham Gold Cup itself. The championship races of the Cheltenham Festival are big highlights of the entire National Hunt season and provide a platform on which legends can be forged. Here’s what racing fans have to look forward to for Cheltenham 2026 betting.
Tuesday - Champion Hurdle Day
The first race of Cheltenham is the Supreme Novices’ Hurdle, which is a thrilling test of speed from youngsters like Mydaddypaddy, Old Park Star, and Fou De Toi, expected to get their first taste of Grade 1 action at the Festival.
Day one’s big highlight, though, is the Champion Hurdle 2026 odds, the ultimate test for the top hurdlers over a 2-mile distance. The 2026 edition could see the likes of Lossiemouth, The New Lion and Sir Gino lead the charge for success.
Wednesday - Ladies Day
The big race of Ladies’ Day on Wednesday is the Queen Mother Champion Steeple Chase. This is another top Grade 1 race with 12 fences tackled over a 2m distance and one of the biggest contests in UK racing, open to runners 5 years old and above. In 1980, the race was renamed as the Queen Mother Champion Chase in honour of the monarch’s 80th birthday.
Expected to be among the well-supported runners in the Cheltenham odds for the 2026 edition are Il Etait Temps, Marine Nationale and Marlborough. The Turners Novices’ Hurdle and Champion Bumper provide more Grade 1 fixtures on the second day of Cheltenham Festival betting.
Thursday - St Patrick’s Day
The Irish celebrations will be in full swing for St Patrick’s Day, with the craic taking the atmosphere to a new level. Three consecutive Grade 1 fixtures pack the middle of the day’s racing, with the Close Brothers Mares’ Hurdle being followed by the Stayers’ Hurdle and then the big Ryanair Chase at a distance of 2m 4f.
The Ryanair Chase is one of the most exciting championship races in Cheltenham betting, and Fact To File could be well-supported if an entry is taken, alongside other potential contenders like Jango Baie, It Etait Temps, Jonbon and Gaelic Warrior.
Friday - Gold Cup Day
Gold Cup odds will be in the spotlight on Friday as the final list of runners is known. The Cheltenham Gold Cup will go off at 4.00 pm and is the Everest of the National Hunt season, an engrossing 3m 2f contest for one of the most prestigious prizes in all of horse racing.
The Cheltenham Gold Cup has created some memorable moments throughout the years, like course-goers watching legends like Kauto Star, Denman, Best Mate, and Arkle claim victories. In 2022, Rachael Blackmore became the first female jockey to win the Blue Riband race on the back of 3/1F A Plus Tard.
2026 Cheltenham Gold Cup Ones To Watch
The 2026 Cheltenham Gold Cup odds will see plenty of shifts ahead of the big race. Inothewayurthinking, Galopin Des Champs and Gaelic Warrior are expected to be among the leading contenders at the head of Cheltenham 2026 betting.
The build-up to the big race will give more clues as to the likely big players on the day, as any burst of positivity in form in the new year could bring the likes of Fact To File, Grey Dawning and Jango Baie into the Gold Cup odds more.

Time To Tune Up and Tune In
Come mid-March 2026, nothing will beat the annual jump racing passion of the Cheltenham Festival, and the unforgettable Cheltenham Roar will start it all off. It’s four epic days of racing where the greatest horses, jockeys and trainers will do battle in the Cotswolds, where acts of speed, stamina and sheer bravery will play out.
Grand National Odds & Grand National Betting
There is nothing else in horse racing quite like the Grand National, and although the race has evolved in the modern era for safety reasons, it’s still a fixture that racing fans hold dear. The first Grand National was held in 1893, so there is a wonderful, long history behind the race, and the demanding steeplechase is traditionally held in April each year.
It’s one of the most famous and most challenging horse races in the sport, as it is a marathon distance of 4 miles 2 1⁄2 furlongs on the turf at Aintree Racecourse on Merseyside. Runners make two laps of the course and face the challenge of 30 fences along the way, including the famous Becher’s Brook, Canal Turn and The Chair.
Runners have to meet certain conditions to enter this behemoth challenge. Horses must be at least seven years old and be rated at least 125 by the British Horse Racing Association. They can also only be entered if they have previously placed in a recognised chase of a distance of at least 2 miles 7 1/2 furlongs as well. The Grand National is a handicap race with a maximum of 11 stone and 12 pounds.
Red Rum is arguably the most famous winner of the Grand National, and the legendary horse remains the only one to have won it three times. Other famous winners include Aldaniti, West Tip, Hedgehunter and Tiger Roll. In 2021, Rachael Blackmore became the first female jockey to win the Grand National, scoring on the back of Minella Times.
The Grand National challenge is so remarkable and so unique that its popularity extends well beyond the interest of regular horse racing bettors. It is one of the most heavily bet-on races in the world because of its immense appeal and for holding such a special place in the culture of British horse racing.
Even people who have no interest in the sport, or don’t typically bet on racing, get drawn into the Grand National fervour, as well. That includes “pinstickers”, people who don’t have a background in reading racing form and who make a random bet on the Grand National winner from limited information.
Royal Ascot Betting
Royal Ascot betting will be back in the June summer spotlight as the event is one flat racing’s most amazing spectacles. The history of the famous festival goes back to the early 1700s, and since the very first races were run, it has had the support of royal patronage, with members of the Royal Family still making annual appearances at Ascot.
The event, hosted at the Berkshire racecourse, didn’t come to be known as “Royal Ascot” until 1911 when it celebrated its remarkable 200th anniversary. While the festival is steeped in history, the modern Royal Ascot meeting is still highly revered, but has evolved beyond just the racing.
Now, not only does the festival deliver five days of top-class racing that punters can scour the latest Royal Ascot odds for, but it’s also one of the biggest social events on the racing calendar, particularly on Ladies’ Day when fashion is top of the bill.
Racing At Royal Ascot
Many racing legends have tasted success at Royal Ascot, like in 2012, when Estimate, a horse owned by Queen Elizabeth II, won the Ascot Gold Cup. Australian flat superstar Black Caviar scored the 2012 Diamond Jubilee Stakes, another success that extended her remarkable unbeaten run in a dramatic finale.
Gold Cup legends Yeats, Sagaro and Stradivarius are fondly remembered for winning the festival’s top prize on at least three occasions and for delivering on their short horse racing odds. Lester Piggott is the all-time leading jockey at Royal Ascot, riding 116 winners including a staggering eleven Gold Cup successes.

Horse racing odds and betting guidance
When betting on horse racing, there are a few types of bets to choose from. The standard options are:
- - Win – simply backing a horse odds to win the race
- - Each-way – got your eye on an outsider? Then backing it each-way means if it gets beaten in a head-bobber, you'll still get a return. This combines two bets – one on the horse to win and another on it to place
Need a hand to work out your potential winnings from an each-way bet? Check out our Bet Calculator or the Bet builder tool of William Hill.
Understanding each-way betting
At William Hill, we offer Extra Places on selected races every day, while you can place each-way bets on your pick at any time by ticking the box in the betslip.
It's crucial to understand the place terms when you place an each-way bet, so here are the number of places paid depending on the numbers of runners in the race:
- - Less than five runners = win-only market
- - Five to seven runners = two places
- - Eight to 15 runners = three places
- - Handicaps of 16 or more runners = four places
Look out for our races with Extra Places as part of stable of great horse racing offers at William Hill.
Understanding horse racing terms
Like many sports, horse betting has its own unique jargon. Here are some key terms:
- - SP – refers to the starting price of each runner. You can back a horse at the odds available, or you can place a bet on its start price, which can go up and down
- - NAP – this is a tipster's strongest bet on the card or of the day. Check out the William Hill Naps Table for expert daily picks
- - NB – this simply stands for next bet. This is generally the second choice after a NAP
