Top Jockey to Mark Cheltenham By Launching Eye-catching Tracksuits

The finest week in the racing calendar is simply around the corner - with around 250,000 fans anticipated to come down on Cheltenham for its famous four-day celebration.


Harry Cobden is among the jockeys wanting to write their name into the history books by winning a few of the biggest races in the sport.


The 27-year-old has already landed six Festival winners, including on Caldwell Potter in a remarkable Golden Miller Novices' Chase last year.


And as he goes for more magnificence in the 2026 edition of the celebration, he has actually teamed up with bookie Paddy Power to create a series of distinctive tracksuits.


The collection is made up of 4 bespoke styles, all themed around a few of the most unforgettable attire seen in racing.


Three of the sport's most recognisable faces - 59-time Festival-winning jockey Ruby Walsh, TV professional Matt Chapman and 1999 Gold Cup-winning jockey Mick Fitzgerald - are fronting the campaign, which is intended at creating what Paddy Power explain as 'a new vision for horse racing'.

The collection mixes a mix of historic colours and styles used by famous jockeys with modern fashion patterns, highlighting the continued crossover between sport and style.


A limited release of 50 pieces from the collection will release at 10am on Tuesday, the first day of the Festival - click on this link to learn more. After that, 50 more will be launched if Cobden trips a winner at the conference.


Cobden said: 'Jockey silks are a few of the most renowned designs in sport - intense, personal and soaked in history. Making them into tracksuits has to do with commemorating them beyond simply the racecourse.
