Horses, hot takes, and a few bets
Punters are primed for the famous Cheltenham roar as the tape is about to lift on the 2025 Cheltenham Festival, which means it’s time to start talking tactics, debating dodgy tips and convincing yourself that this is the year you actually beat the bookies.
Luckily, BoyleSports is making life easier with a free Cheltenham Preview Night on the eve of racing’s most famous four days. As racing fans descend en masse on Gloucester town, expert insight, racing chat and free bets await at the BoyleSports store.
With runners and riders declared, the all-important going description in the bag, and winners galore in the panel’s crosshairs, it’s your last chance to have your card marked for the betting bonanza.
A panel packed with racing legends (and a few strong opinions)
There’s no shortage of people willing to tell you their Cheltenham tips, but this lot actually know what they’re talking about.
David Jennings – Racing Post journalist and host for the evening
Robbie Power – Grand National and Gold Cup-winning jockey
Bryan Cooper – Cheltenham Festival legend and Gold Cup winner
Shark Hanlon – The man behind Hewick and a trainer who loves an upset
Between them, they’ve ridden winners, trained champions, and taken Cheltenham by storm. Expect bold calls, insider info, and the kind of racing stories you won’t get anywhere else.

You might even win something (for once)
If your luck is usually gone before the first race, this might be your night.
Spot prizes handed out throughout the evening
Charity bets placed by the panel, with winnings going to good causes
And best of all? It’s completely free—no tickets, no sign-ups, just turn up and get stuck in.
