When is the Ultima? Cheltenham date, time, runners and betting

The Ultima is the first handicap on the Cheltenham Festival schedule – and it’s fair to say last year’s renewal was red hot.

Corach Rambler sliced his way through the field in the closing stages to successfully defend his crown before landing the following month’s Aintree Grand National, while the runner-up, Fastorslow, went on to beat Galopin Des Champs in the Punchestown Gold Cup.

The Ultima is a stamina-sapping contest run over 3m1f on the Old Course at Prestbury Park and it is one of the few races at the meeting that has been dominated by the home team in recent years as British-trained horses have won the last 10 renewals.

You can run the rule over our Ultima Handicap Chase odds on the Paddy Power website and Paddy Power app, otherwise all the key details about next year’s renewal can be found below.

Ultima Handicap Chase 2024 date and start time

The Ultima Handicap Chase is set to take place at Cheltenham on Tuesday, March 12. The post time is provisionally scheduled for 14:50. You can watch the race live on the Paddy Power website and Paddy Power app or on ITV.
