If you're looking for world-class Jump racing with a big splash of festive cheer then look no further than Betfair Tingle Creek Saturday!
Sandown Park comes alive with festive cheer as we bring gift giving, carol singing, decorations and, of course, world-class Grade 1 Jump racing to Esher.
On the track you can look forward to two Grade 1s - the feature race of the meeting, Betfair Tingle Creek Chase and also the Henry VIII Novice Chase. Can anyone de-throne the mighty Jonbon this year or will he add to his long list of Sandown Park Grade 1 wins.
Approximate timings, likely to change closer to the raceday.

Run over two miles, the Tingle Creek is one of the most prestigious races of its kind in the division. Speed and accurate jumping are a must to land a race which has been won by some of Jump racing’s all time greats, including Altior, Desert Orchid, Moscow Flyer, Kauto Star, Sprinter Sacre and Sire De Grugy.
Meanwhile, the Henry VIII Novices' Chase offers a glimpse into the future, with some of the sport’s top young novices lining up for Grade One honours and a potential shot at the Tingle Creek down the line – a path followed to devastating effect by Altior in recent years for trainer Nicky Henderson’s team.
Not only do the stands and bars offer unrivalled vantage points to take in Sandown Park’s stunning vista, our big screens will be showing the action from Aintree on the day, ensuring you don’t miss a beat as The Jockey Club’s Merseyside course hosts the iconic Becher Chase Day.
