Cheltenham Festival 2025: Top jockey odds

The ever-popular Rachael Blackmore is 20/1 to take the title (14/1 without Townend) alongside Jockeys’ Championship contender Harry Skelton (12/1 without Townend).

 Cal Gildart of Ladbrokes said: “Paul Townend’s got more Cheltenham winners to his name than any of his peers, not to mention a fruitful relationship with the Festival’s greatest trainer.

Below are the odds for the seven favourites to be crowned 'top jockey' at Cheltenham Festival this year, with Townend the runaway favourite with less than a week to go.

As noted, the bookies are so confident that Townend is going to be crowned 'top jockey' than they've even creating a market without him included.

Walsh is the favourite in that regard, as noted, but De Boinville isn't too far behind.

Cal Gidart of Ladbrokes said: “His dominance looks set to continue, so our market without the four-time Cheltenham Top Jockey could be more appealing to punters."

Below are the odds for the seven favourites in that market, all of whom are priced with odds of 14/1 or shorter.
