The Racing & History

Seven races will be taking place on Paddy Power Imperial Cup Day featuring two Grade 3 hurdles and a listed Flat race. The Imperial Cup was first run in 1907 and was considered the most important and prestigious hurdle race of the season right up until the launch of the Champion Hurdle at Cheltenham in 1927. The likes of Olympian, Blowing Wind and Gaspara have all gone on to win at Cheltenham Festival after winning at Sandown Park.

all the sport action

Enjoy a Saturday of sport all in one place! Look out for the Rugby Zone inside the Grandstand - with plenty of seating, live music from acoustic band The Hares and located near the bar, it's ideal as a base for your day. We'll be showing the following games during and after racing:

12.30pm - Football: Liverpool v Bournemouth
4.45pm - Rugby: England v Wales

a question of Cheltenham

After the racing, don't miss the chance to hear exclusive news and tips from top trainers & jockeys just days before The Festival at A Question of Cheltenham. Last year's speakers included top trainer Nicky Henderson, 2010 Cheltenham Gold Cup winning jockey Paddy Brennan and was hosted by Mick Fitzgerald. This year A Question of Cheltenham takes on an exciting new format, guaranteeing an entertaining and insightful experience for all! Ticket profits go to The Injured Jockeys Fund.
