Cheltenham Festival races don’t come more unpredictable than the Kim Muir Challenge Cup, a stayer’s handicap chase for amateur jockeys.
2025 Kim Muir Challenge Cup Preview
The Kim Muir Challenge Cup’s unpredictable nature is highlighted by the favourite produced by the race in 2025, with Walking On Air starting the race as a favourite with is recent form including a fall, 3rd place and 6th place. At 10/3 he’s a great lay betting target in the exchanges.
Second in the betting is Midnight Our Fred, who finished second in a field of 27 at Leopardstown in December. With a win and five places from his eight starts over fences, combined with strong recent form, he’s a solid each-way option at 6/1.
Sa Majeste has been in strong form this season, taking two wins and a place from his four starts. He’s proven over today’s distance and at 9/1 the value each-way bet in the field.

About the Fulke Walwyn Kim Muir Challenge Cup
The Fulke Walwyn Kim Muir Challenge Cup is the Cheltenham Festival’s steeplechase showcase of amateur jockeys in the UK. Open to 5-year-old and above steeplechasers, the race covers a distance of 3 miles 1½ furlongs and features 19 fences. The race is a handicap, and despite having been contested at the Cheltenham Festival since 1946 carries no grading.
The Fulke Walwyn Kim Muir Challenge Cup tends to pull in fields of grizzled but otherwise ordinary handicap veterans with solid staying power. However, it I has produced one famous alumni, with 2010 winner, Ballabriggs, going on to win the Grand National the following season. It has also produced two multiple race winners, with both Chu-The and Glyde Court taking a pair of victories.
The Fulke Walwyn Kim Muir Challenge Cup defies educated bets. With relatively unknown riders up against average horses levelled out by handicaps, picking a winner is largely guesswork. This is reflected in the starting prices of recent winners, which range from 9/2 to 40/1.
The only notable trend in the rate is that top weight has not proven a problem to a few recent winners, which means the best horse in the field as rated by the handicapper could be worth getting behind. Also stay clear of younger horses, no horse younger than 7 has won this race since 1971.
