Sixth race of the opening day

The Boodles Juvenile Handicap Hurdle, often referred to as the Fred Winter Juvenile Handicap Hurdle, is a thrilling Grade 3 contest held on the opening day of the Cheltenham Festival. Designed for four-year-old horses, the race covers a distance of 2 miles and features 8 hurdles. With a substantial prize purse of £78,696 for the winner, this race provides a fantastic opportunity for young hurdlers to showcase their potential.

History of the Juvenile Novices' Handicap Hurdle

Introduced in 2005 as part of the Cheltenham Festival's expansion to four days, the Boodles Juvenile Handicap Hurdle quickly established itself as an exciting race for young hurdlers. It began as a listed handicap before earning its well-deserved promotion to Grade 3 status in 2009.

The race honours the legendary Fred Winter, who passed away in 2004. Winter's enduring legacy at the Cheltenham Festival is marked by his remarkable success both as a jockey (17 wins) and trainer (28 wins).

Generously sponsored by the luxury jewelry company Boodles, the race's official title is the Boodles Juvenile Handicap Hurdle.

Recent years

The Boodles Juvenile Handicap Hurdle often delivers surprises, with young, up-and-coming hurdlers taking advantage of favourable weights. Despite the favourite, Band of Outlaws, winning in 2019, six of the last eight winners have been at double-figure prices, making this an exciting race for those seeking potential upsets.

Recent history includes these notable results:

  • 2023: Jazzy Matty (Gordon Elliott) secured a thrilling victory
  • 2022: Brazil (Padraig Roche) defied the odds for a surprise win.
  • 2021: Gaelic Warrior (Willie Mullins) delivered a strong performance.
  • 2020: Aramax (Gordon Elliott) claimed the prize.

While no jockey has won the race more than once, trainers hold a key to watch. Paul Nicholls boasts the most wins with:

  • Sanctuaire (2010)
  • Qualando (2015)
  • Diego du Charmil (2016)

Gordon Elliott is close behind and always warrants attention, having won with:

  • Flaxen Flare (2013)
  • Veneer of Charm (2018)
  • Jazzy Matty (2023)
