How We Analyse the Cheltenham Festival

Cheltenham Pulse brings together historical data, trends and race-specific analysis to identify the factors that can help uncover potential Festival winners. Rather than relying on one statistic or opinion, we look at the Festival from several different angles - from trainers and jockeys to previous Festival form, key preparation races and the journey from novice races to championship level.

Each area provides a different piece of the puzzle. Together, they form the Cheltenham Pulse.
