Cheltenham Festival 2023 Day 4 Tips: Best Bets and Latest Odds for Friday

The Cheltenham Festival concludes on Friday with Gold Cup day, which has a lot to live up to after last year’s incredible race won by Rachael Blackmore.

While Blackmore in A Plus Tard will be flamboyant again, the favorite is Willie Mullins’ Galopin Des Champs.

Only eight horses have won more than one Gold Cup, including Al Boum Photo, who defended the cup in 2020.

While the winner from 2021, Minella Indo, returns to contest this year’s race again.

Here’s everything you need to know ahead of the 2023 Cheltenham Festival and the latest odds to start Day 4 on Friday:
