The Cheltenham Festival’s showpiece event, the Gold Cup has recently been no place for market leaders, with only one SP favourite winning in the last five years.
Native River marginally won the 2018 race ahead of favourite Might Bite in an epic contest last year at 5/1.
The race pits the best horses in National Hunt racing against each other and is the one that everyone wants to win.
This year’s field is relatively open, with Native River once again leading the betting for trainer Colin Tizzard. There are many horses that you could make a claim for, but why not let your personality decide who to back?
Are you a risk taker, here for the betting or fashion and is the jockey’s colours something you look for? Use our Gold Cup generator courtesy of BetVictor to find out which horse you should be backing based on your personality.
Follow the Cheltenham Gold Cup live with The Independent as we bring you the entire programme on the fourth and final day at the Festival.
