Betfred Tingle Creek Christmas Festival – Sandown – Friday 5 & Saturday 6 December
December 5 - December 6
Sandown kicks off its Jumps season with the prestigious two-mile Betfair Tingle Creek Chase, one of the most fiercely contested races in the winter calendar.
This event draws the best two-mile chasers and has grown in stature over the years, becoming a significant stepping stone towards the Queen Mother Champion Chase at the Cheltenham Festival.
In 2006, Kauto Star, who was named Horse of the Year in 2007, claimed his second victory in this race, overshadowing future Queen Mother Champion Chase winner Voy Por Ustedes.
Sandown, known for its modern facilities and stunning scenery, attracts large crowds to this high-quality event.
