What is it about the Cheltenham Festival that makes a quarter of a million spectators travel to the county of Gloucestershire?

Why is it such a big deal? Is it the biggest spectacle in horse racing?

We set about to break down the history of the Festival, the reasons why you find yourself screaming at the tele and roaring on a horse you'd previously known nothing or very little about.

What is the Irish invasion? Who are the top trainers and jockeys? What's the fascination with potatoes, afternoon tea and the Guinness Village?

Who and how do you get your hands on a combined prize money amount of a hefty 4,590,000 Pounds.

And if you are one of the 250,000 making the pilgrimage to Cheltenham what should you wear?

We uncover the lot in this video - what's all the fuss about?
