The Ultima Handicap Chase on day one of the Cheltenham Festival

Planet Sport takes you through the Grade 1 results from the UK and Ireland's 2024/25 National Hunt seasons.

Another season over the jumps is in the bag and we've experienced some of the biggest races of the 2024/25 campaign including the King George IV, the Aintree Festival and of course the daddy of them all the Cheltenham Festival.

We've thrown in the Grand National too, even though it's not a Grade 1, everyone thinks it's the biggest race of the year so it can't be ignored.

So take us by the hand, yes, we've washed them, and let us review all the Grade 1 results from the 2024/25 season across the UK and Ireland.

Remember horse racing rarely takes a breath, so you can follow all the current live horse racing action from across the globe by using Planet Sport's race centres and you can also have a punt with Planet Sport Bet.
