The November Meeting

Friday, November 17- Countryside Day

The November Meeting commences with Countryside Day, a tradition dating back over two decades with its

unique country fair atmosphere and where money is raised for the Countryside Alliance and the Injured

Jockeys Fund.

10.30am – Gates Open

Taking place in the paddock pre-racing are countryside activities including the Dog and Duck Show, the

Game Goers, Trail Hounds and Horse and Hounds.

There will be live music throughout the day on the Best Mate Plaza from the Hipcats, as well as The Chip

Shop Boys performing live in the Final Flight Bar after racing.

The shopping experience at The November Meeting offers an ideal opportunity, with plenty of outlets ready

to sell a diverse range of goods ahead of Christmas. There is something to suit every taste and budget.

Saturday, November 18 – BetVictor Gold Cup Day

BetVictor Gold Cup Day, with seven top-quality races, is one of the most popular racedays at Cheltenham

outside of The Festival.

The £160,000 BetVictor Gold Cup, the most valuable race of the Jump season so far, is always fiercely

contested with lots of runners.

10.00am – Gates Open

Saturday's music offering includes Cheltenham favourites the Hipcats performing in the Best Mate Plaza all

day, the Lucky 15s in The Guinness Village, the popular Chip Shop Boys leading the party in the Final Flight

bar after racing and Black Friday in The Centaur.

Sunday, November 19 – The November Meeting Sunday

The November Meeting Sunday, where there is free entertainment for the whole family to enjoy, as well as

six races on the card. It is the only time that Cheltenham races on a Sunday.

The £100,000 Unibet Greatwood Handicap Hurdle is the feature race, while the Grade Two Shloer Chase,

worth £75,000, promises to be a cracking contest.

11.00am - Gates Open

Join us in the ROA Family Fun Zone where there will be special visits from Peter Rabbit throughout the day.

The first 500 children to visit the zone will receive a walking pet balloon, and balloon artists Twistina and

Twistopher will be there to enthral with their art. With entertainment including Showtime Shane, face-

painting, pony plaiting, horse hoppers, colouring in and rosette making, there is an abundance of activities

for families to enjoy - and certificates to take home to remember the day. There will also be live Animal

Magic, bringing a collection of unusual animals to meet.

Greg James and Chris Smith The Radio 1 stars will be in our Family Fun Zone throughout the day signing

copies of their new book 'Kid Normal'. They are also giving away free copies to the first 150 Junior Jumpers

through the Fun Zone door to have signed.

Free dining for under 12s is offered in restaurants at Cheltenham Racecourse with two paying adults

(excluding the Panoramic).

BetVictor Gold Cup Facts & Figures

Background information

First staged in 1960, the Grade Three BetVictor Gold Cup is one of Jump racing’s most illustrious and valuable

handicap chases and its history contains the names of some of the sport’s finest horses.

The extended two and a half mile showpiece, first run under its present title in 2016, was known as the

Paddy Power Gold Cup from 2003 to 2015, and the Thomas Pink Gold Cup from 2000 to 2002. Whitbread,

under the Mackeson brand and then Murphys, backed the first 40 renewals.

Multiple winners There have been five dual winners – Fortria (1960 & 1962), Gay Trip (1969 & 1971), Half Free (1984 &

1985), Bradbury Star (1993 & 1994) and Cyfor Malta (1998 & 2002). No horse has won the BetVictor Gold

Cup more than twice.

Most successful owner The late David Johnson has been the most successful owner with seven successes – Challenger Du Luc

(1996), Cyfor Malta (1998 & 2002), Lady Cricket (2000), Celestial Gold (2004), Our Vic (2005) and Great

Endeavour (2011).

Most successful trainer

Martin Pipe landed the spoils eight times before his retirement in April, 2006 – Beau Ranger (1987),

Challenger Du Luc (1996), Cyfor Malta (1998 & 2002), Lady Cricket (2000), Celestial Gold (2004) and Our

Vic (2005).

Of the current trainers, Nigel Twiston-Davies (1992 Tipping Tim, 2008 Imperial Commander & 2010 Little

Josh) and Jonjo O’Neill (2006 Exotic Dancer, 2013 Johns Spirit & 2016 Taquin Du Seuil) lead the way with

three wins apiece.

Most successful jockey The great Sir A P McCoy, the record-breaking 20-time champion Jump jockey, has been the most successful

rider in the race with four victories – Cyfor Malta (1998), Lady Cricket (2000), Shooting Light (2001) and

Exotic Dancer (2006).

Among the current jockeys, Timmy Murphy has the best score with three winners, although he switched to

riding on the Flat in 2015.

safety limit is 20.

Betting The longest-priced winners of the BetVictor Gold Cup have been 33/1 shots Chatham (1970) and Senor El

Betrutti (1997).

Dunkirk (1965) has been the shortest-priced scorer at 11/10. Favourites have won 14 of the 57 runnings,

a strike rate of 24.56 per cent, with Tranquil Sea being the most recent to succeed at 11/2 in 2009.

Weights Seven winners have defied top-weight – Fortria (1960 & 1962), Dunkirk (1965), Half Free (1984), Bradbury

Star (1994), Cyfor Malta (2002) and Al Ferof (2012). The top-weight, which was 12st 7lb when Dunkirk won

in 1965, is now a maximum 11st 12lb.

Three winners have carried bottom weight of 10st – Red Candle (1972), Senor El Betrutti (1997) and The

Outback Way (1999).

BetVictor Gold Cup & Caspian Caviar Gold Cup

Seven horses have won both the BetVictor Gold Cup and the Caspian Caviar Gold Cup, which takes place

over a similar distance at Cheltenham at The International in December. Of the seven winners, only three

have achieved the feat in the same season – Pegwwell Bay, Senor El Betrutti and Exotic Dancer. The seven

winners of both races are:

Horse BetVictor win Caspian Caviar win Fifty Dollars More 1982 1983

Beau Ranger 1987 1984

Pegwell Bay 1988 1988

Another Coral 1991 1992

Dublin Flyer 1995 1994

Senor El Betrutti 1997 1997

Exotic Dancer 2006 2006

Did you know?

Imperial Commander is the only horse to win both the BetVictor Gold Cup (2008) and Timico Cheltenham

Gold Cup (2010).

Other facts about The November Meeting The incomparable Arkle, winner of the Cheltenham Gold Cup from 1964 to 1966, made his British racecourse

bow in the Honeybourne Chase on the Saturday of The November Meeting in 1962. It was a fantastic day

for Arkle’s trainer and jockey, Tom Dreaper and Pat Taaffe who, following Arkle’s impressive victory by 20

lengths, went on to land what is now the BetVictor Gold Cup with Fortria.

Best Mate, also the winner of three Cheltenham Gold Cups in 2002, 2003 & 2004, gained his first success

under Rules in Britain when taking The November Meeting bumper in 1999 and recorded the second chase

win of his career at The November Meeting in 2000.

The 2010 Timico Cheltenham Gold Cup victor Imperial Commander won the 2008 BetVictor Gold Cup, while

Long Run finished third to Little Josh in 2010 before going on to win the King George VI Chase and the 2011

Timico Cheltenham Gold Cup.

The 2003 Unibet Champion Hurdle victor Rooster Booster defied top-weight to win the Unibet Greatwood

Hurdle in 2002. The 2001 Unibet Greatwood Hurdle winner, Westender, finished second to Rooster Booster

in the 2003 Unibet Champion Hurdle, a feat mirrored in 2009/10 by Khyber Kim, who chased home Binocular

at The Festival.

The November Meeting has only once been held at a different venue from Prestbury Park. A new drainage

system was being installed at Cheltenham in 1976, so the then two-day meeting was switched to

Lancashire’s Haydock Park where Cancello became the only horse to win the BetVictor Gold Cup anywhere

but Cheltenham.
