Chestival Hall of Fame

 

The Chestival Hall of Fame aims to honour our Cheltenham Festival heroes.

These won't necessarily be the best horses, jockeys or trainers, although they often will but they will represent the glorious virtues of the Chestival: 
class, passion, determination and triumph.

An induction to the Hall of Fame will take place twice a year (in February and September) and will take the form of a nomination and a vote.  To ensure the exclusivity of the Hall of Fame, there will be a limited number of inductees on each occasion.

All Chestivalians will be allowed to vote for their favoured nominees.
