There is no clear favourite with bettors in the 2024 Champion Bumper at Cheltenham with Jasmin De Vaux the third most backed in the race.
The Champion Bumper is the only race at the Festival without any obstacles, being a National Hunt Flat Race. The race has been run since 1992 and has welcomed future stars including Cue Card who won the race as a four year old in 2010 for the Tizzards.
Willie Mullins has won the race 12 times including three of the last four runnings. Being a flat race, flat jockeys have been known to ride in the race with Jamie Spencer famously winning it aboard Pizarro in 2002.

Looking at Mullins entries to this race, Jasmin De Vaux stands out at the shortest price (9/2 BetMGM) and with Patrick Mullins on board.
Jasmin De Vaux is from a good family and emerged as a leading contender for the Champion Bumper after romping to success on his debut. The form isn’t strong, but he won by an impressive 15 lengths and he warrants respect for the Willie Mullins team.
The win is however, arguably the most impressive of the form in this field and although it didn't seem to beat much in that race, Mullins is a specialst when it comes to training bumper winners and this horse looks like his first string in the Champion Bumper among his nine entrants.
