Rain has been forecast for Friday morning, meaning the Cheltenham Gold Cup will likely be ran on soft ground.


Fourteen horses have been declared with just 48 hours to go until the big race.


Weather forecasts indicate that around 4-5mm of rain will fall at Cheltenham on Friday morning, and although it is difficult to be sure at this stage, it is very probably the ground will turn soft for the race.


Cheltenham Festival tickets are available now.
