The 2024 Cheltenham Gold Cup (known as the Boodles Cheltenham Gold Cup for sponsorship reasons) was the 96th annual running of the Cheltenham Gold Cup horse race and was held at Cheltenham Racecourse, Gloucestershire, England, on 16 March 2024.
The race was won for the second year by the 10-11 favourite Galopin Des Champs, owned by Mrs Audrey Turley, trained in Ireland by Willie Mullins and ridden by Paul Townend. Mullins and Townend were both winning the Cheltenham Gold Cup for a fourth time in six years, after the victories of Al Boum Photo in 2019 and 2020 and Galopin Des Champs in 2023. Gerri Colombe finished second and Corach Rambler was third.[1]
