The start of the three-day November Meeting may still be 10 days away, but already the powers-that-be at Cheltenham Racecourse are looking ahead to next month’s two-day meeting.

That of course is the hugely popular International, which takes place on Friday 14th and Saturday 15th December.

Two great days will feature seven races each day, in what will no doubt provide some thrilling action on the course.

It’s always a festive Friday at The International as racegoers are treated to the finale of the Crystal Cup.

The race concludes a series of unique races across Europe which encapsulates and celebrates the rich heritage of the sport.

The 2017 running saw the Gordon Elliott-trained Bless The Wings win The Glenfarclas Cross Country Handicap, drawing clear by two-and-a half lengths under Davy Russell to beat Cantlow.

On the Saturday there are two feature races, the Unibet International Hurdle and the December Gold Cup.

Gates open at 10am on both days, with the first race at 12.10pm.
