About The County Hurdle

The County Hurdle has origins dating back to 1920, and since its first running at the Cheltenham Festival, it has been a key part of the betting process for many punters as it was previously the final chance to land a win before the curtain closed on Cheltenham for another year.

Classed as a premier handicap, this grade 3 race was traditionally the final race of the festival. However, due to some running order changed in 2009, it became the second race on the final day, which offered it some further esteem.

In its current form, the County Handicap Hurdle is raced on the new course, which is the same for all races on day three and day four of Cheltenham. As it's a handicap, all of the horses will carry different weights, which means no allowances will be made for mares who enter the race. The distance of the race is two miles and one furlong, and runners will need to succeed in the race.
