Cheltenham Festival Results 2023: Past Course Winners Have Good Records
The term ‘horses for courses’ is often thrown around in the world of horse racing, but this phrase certainly comes into its own at the Cheltenham Festival each season.
Over the years, it’s been clear that the tricky Prestbury Park track, with its stiff uphill finish, isn’t to the liking of some horses.
However, in contrast, there are many horses than love the place and when returning year-after-year seem to find an extra gear.
Therefore, looking back on past Cheltenham Festival results can be a great way to find the winners the following year.
This is backed up with the 2023 Cheltenham results throwing up a stack of horses that had already won at the meeting in previous years.
These include, Constitution Hill, Delta Work, Corach Rambler, Honeysuckle, Envoi Allen and Sire Du Berlais.
So, with this in mind, it will be a huge shock if we are not getting at least one winner in 2024 that hasn’t already tasted Festival success.
The good news is here at SportsLens we’ve not only listed ALL of the 28 winners at the Cheltenham Festival in 2023, but you can also relive the action watch all last year’s races below.
