FEATURING GLOUCESTERSHIRE & RACING REMEMBER WITH THEMED ACTIVITIES TO MARK THE END OF WW1 

Look at what happened in 2018 and check back soon as we're already starting to think about 2019.

This is the only Sunday where racing takes place at Cheltenham Racecourse throughout the year. This Sunday holds particular prevalence as we mark the centenary of the Armistice with Gloucestershire & Racing Remember. As well as quality racing, there will be a number of themed activities and commemorative events throughout the day, including the charity for the day Combat Stress. The famous Family Fun area will be back this year with all our family favourites, click here for more information.

The meeting always provides glimpses of future stars and it was no different in the latest renewal of the Sky Bet Supreme Trial Novices’ Hurdle. The runners were well bunched throughout the race with no certain winner appearing. Eventual Cheltenham Festival winner, Summerville Boy took the lead as they climbed the Cheltenham Hill, drawing clear of the rest of the field by 3 lengths but Slate house, under Harry Cobden, fought back to win the race by 3/4 of a length. 

At 10:50, the Royal Gloucestershire Hussars, soldiers dressed in WW1 uniform, will march in contingent in the Parade Ring. At 11:00, the Cheltenham Steam Train will arrive with contingent of Glosters on board, followed by an Act of Remembrance in the Parade Ring at 11:15. At 12:30, there will be an Aerial Combat Display above the Racecourse, followed by a parade on the Racetrack at 1:30. There will be a host of WW1 themed activities inside The Centaur, including a field hospital and a Jet Age Museum. For more information on all the displays, click here.
