Cheltenham Festival 2026 | Sean Bowen goes in search of Gold Cup glory with Haiti Couleurs

09 Mar 2026
We recently sat down with Coral Racing Ambassador, Sean Bowen, to get the rundown on one of his main contenders of the week, Haiti Couleurs, who is set to run in the Grade 1 Cheltenham Gold Cup on Friday.

Despite winning the Jumps' Jockeys' Championship last year and surpassing 200 winners already this season, Sean is still in search of his first ever winner at the Cheltenham Festival. Although he has never tasted success at the flagship meeting of the National Hunt calendar, he's as optimistic as ever on his chances this year, including Rebecca Curtis' stable star, Haiti Couleurs, who arrives off the back of two scintillating victories in the Coral Welsh Grand National and Denman Chase.

Tune in to find out how Sean thinks he will fare in what will undoubtedly be the nine-year-old's biggest test yet.
