Champion Hurdle Odds 2024

Constitution Hill is the heavy odds-on favourite to win back to back Champion Hurdles at Cheltenham. It's worth remembering, however, that Champion Hurdle favourites historically win 50% of the time, so a surprise result isn't out of the question by any means.

The prize pot for the 2024 Champion Hurdle is £450,000, with the winner landing £253,215. Prizes for this Cheltenham Championship race will be paid out for the top eight places.

The Champion Hurdle is the feature race on Day 1 (Tuesday) of the Cheltenham Festival. The 2024 Champion Hurdle takes place at 3:30pm on Tuesday, March 14.

Six different mares have won the Champion Hurdle since the race was established in 1927. African Sister (1929), Dawn Run (1984), Flakey Dove (1994), Annie Power (2016), Epatante (2020) and Honeysuckle (2021 & 2022) are the six mares that have emerged victorious.

Willie Mullins has saddled the winner of the Champion Hurdle on four occasions. Hurricane Fly was the first horse trained by Mullins to win the Champion Hurdle in 2011 and repeated that success in 2013. Further winners came with Faugheen (2015) and Annie Power (2016). Willie's father Paddy landed a famous win with Dawn Run in 1984.
