1. Kauto Star (Ruby Walsh) 7-4 favourite

2. Denman (Sam Thomas) 7-1
3. Exotic Dancer (Tony McCoy) 8-1
4. Neptune Collonges (Christian Williams) 15-2

The 2009 Cheltenham Gold Cup was without doubt the race of the 2009 festival as the 2007 winner Kauto Star and the new kid on the block Denman squared up to fight it out to find the number 1 chaser in the World. This race cause so much hype and we only hope that we again get to see both horse do battle in the 2009 Gold Cup.

The Gold Cup is the feature race of the entire Cheltenham Festival and it brings to the fore the best chaser in the land and it is run over three miles, two furlongs of the Cheltenham Racecourse.

Paul Nicholls had the first three home in 2009 and there is no reason why he can not achieve the same again in 2009. The third horse home Neptune Collongues nearly got second place last year and with another year of improvement in him he may well be more of a problem for Denman and Kauto Star next time round.

Cheltenham Gold Cup Odds

In 2009 the online bookies could not make up their mind as to who they would make the favourite and in the end it was Kauto Star who went off at odds of 10/11 and is likely to go off favourite once again after his win in the King George and Denman disappointing in the Levy Board Chase.
