It's the final day of the 2024 Cheltenham Festival and we've got all of the Cheltenham results for you.

The main attraction as ever is the Gold Cup. Galopin Des Champs with Paul Townend aboard is looking to win Cheltenham's big race for the second year running and cap a wonderful week for trainer Willie Mullins. The horse is 10/11 to win the Gold Cup again.

The Gold Cup has been won by an Ireland trainer in every year since 2019 and there's no reason to think this year will be different.

Britain will need to dominate the racing Friday to take the Prestbury Cup.

Cheltenham results: Day Three recap

Yesterday's racing saw Ireland's dominance stalled at the festival. There were no shortage of famous football managers around the parade ring, with the likes of Alex Ferguson, Sam Allardyce and Harry Redknapp all very present on Thursday.

Fergie had two winners: Protektorat and Monmiral.

"I've waited 20 years and now had two winners in 40 minutes."

"It's unbelievable, isn't it? It's a special place. This is like the Derby or the FA Cup final."

"Of course it's not the same as winning at football, that was my life, I was immersed in that, this is what I do for pleasure so it's a different feeling. I don't have to worry about it, I leave that to the trainer."

Harry Redknapp also had a winner with Shake 'Em Up Harry.

"Oh my God, get in there! How good was that? He jumped for fun. What a performance"

"My nan got me into racing, she was a bookie's runner back in the day. She'd get locked up in Poplar Police Station in the East End of London, because it was illegal in those days.

"I love the horses, I love the Festival, I love the people. It means so much."
