Buy Tickets HospitalityBetfair Imperial Cup Day
If there was a perfect prelude to the Cheltenham Festival then Betfair Imperial Cup Day at Sandown Park is almost certainly it.
In years gone by winners of the two mile prize have gone on to glory at The Festival the following week, including Blowing Wind in 1998, who followed up in the County Hurdle, and 2007 winner Gaspara, who backed her win up in the Fred Winter Juvenile Novices’ Handicap Hurdle.
As well as the thrilling racing action out on the track, we will have a whole host of sports-themed entertainment including the ultimate Cheltenham Festival Preview after racing!
