ROLL OF HONOUR

Gold Cup Heroes

Cheltenham Gold Cup winners earn their place in history alongside other sporting greats. Discover all of the Cheltenham Gold Cup results & winners since 1924 listed below; including their age, weight, trainer, jockey and starting prices.

 

In the 1850s there was a movement to establish a true steeplechase and revive what some saw as the golden sporting age of steeplechasing in the 1830s. “Fog” Rowlands and others thought of establishing a race “to encourage farmers to breed high-class horses” and it was hoped that farmers and hunting men would ride in it.

 

They wanted to discourage the “keeping in training of a set of weeds useful only for betting purposes” by setting a tough cross country course.

 

In 1924, we saw the introduction of the Cheltenham Gold Cup. View all our Gold Cup winners, dating back to 1924...
