Alongside Cheltenham, the month features the popular Imperial Cup Day at Sandown and the thrilling Midlands Grand National at Uttoxeter. For flat racing enthusiasts, the new turf season kicks off with the William Hill Lincoln at Redcar on March 25.Key Events and Races
Vodafone Gold Cup at Newbury
The month starts with the Vodafone Gold Cup at Newbury on March 4, a prestigious race over two and a half miles. Despite its proximity to the Cheltenham Festival, it attracts significant interest. Trainers face tough decisions about whether to run their horses here or save them for Cheltenham's Ryanair Chase or Racing Post Plate.Grimthorpe Chase
On the same day, the Grimthorpe Chase, a demanding staying handicap over three and a quarter miles, takes place at Lingfield. A promising contender is A Glass In Thyne, following a recent victory in the Skybet Chase.Imperial Cup at Sandown
The Imperial Cup at Sandown on March 11 is a highlight for many bettors. Champion trainer Martin Pipe has a remarkable record in this fiercely competitive handicap hurdle, having won it five times. His entries, like Buena Vista, Acambo, and Desert Air, should be watched closely.Cheltenham Festival
The Cheltenham Festival begins on March 14, with the Champion Hurdle as a key event. Irish competitors have dominated, winning five of the last seven titles. Horses like Brave Inca, Macs Joy, and Al Eile could continue this trend. The home team has faced challenges, but a return to form from Arcalis might offer strong opposition.Queen Mother Champion Chase
On Wednesday, the spotlight is on the Queen Mother Champion Chase. The question is whether the veteran Moscow Flyer, a dual winner, can fend off younger talents like Kauto Star and Fota Island. Moscow Flyer’s age might be a disadvantage, while Kauto Star is a strong favorite.World Hurdle
Thursday features the World Hurdle, previously known as the Stayers Hurdle. The race includes Baracouda, seeking a third title at the age of eleven, against a strong field featuring Mighty Man, No Refuge, and others.Cheltenham Gold Cup
The festival culminates on March 17 with the Cheltenham Gold Cup. The absence of last year's winner, Kicking King, has opened the field. Monkerhostin, who performed well in the 2005 King George VI Chase, emerges as a potential victor.Midlands Grand National at Uttoxeter
March 18 is the date for the Midlands Grand National. Ossmoses, who relishes long distances and muddy conditions, is a strong contender. The EBF Mares Novices Chase Final at the same event features Sue Smith’s resilient mare Viciana.William Hill Lincoln at Redcar
March concludes with the William Hill Lincoln at Redcar. Traditionally held at Doncaster, this year's race has moved locations. The draw will play a crucial role in this one-mile handicap. Last year’s winner, Stream of Gold, and hopefuls like Kings Majesty and Cesare are the ones to watch.March promises an exciting month of racing in the UK, with numerous opportunities to witness top-class action across a variety of events.
