Cheltenham Festival Trials Day 2024 full race card and tips

Cheltenham Festival Trails Day takes place at Prestbury Park on Saturday afternoon, with pointers aplenty expected for the big meeting meeting in March.

There are eight races for punters to get stuck into, with the Clarence House Chase being run at Cheltenham once again this year after last weekend's Ascot card fell to the weather.

The action kicks off at 12.05pm when the two market leaders for the Triumph Hurdle in Burdett Road and Sir Gino clash.

The Cotswold Chase is another fascinating contest as last year's winner Ahoy Senor faces a strong field, which includes Brown Advisory winner The Real Whacker, with the Paul Nicholls-trained Stay Away Fay vying with him for favouritism.

Champion Chase hope Jonbon will go off at very short odds for the Clarence House before last year's Triumph winner Lossiemouth makes her seasonal reappearance in the International Hurdle.

And Paisley Park aims to make history by landing the Cleeve Hurdle for a record fourth time.

Here's a list of the runners and riders, as well as a tip for each race:
