    We will be taking you through the key Cheltenham bits and pieces today ahead of the start of racing at 13:30 GMT. We have tips, stats and plenty of people on the hallowed turf who will bring us the colour and atmosphere which makes it so special.

    We have a cracking debate for you to get involved in which is inspired by the self proclaimed 'Special One' but for now, let's run through some back pages.

    The Daily Star gets us going. They draw reference to Ander Herrera's sending off as Manchester United went down 1-0 at Chelsea, N'Golo Kante's strike sending the Blues into the FA Cup semi-finals.

    "Until then, Judas is number one."  

    A Tuesday morning, Chelsea are doing well and a beaten Jose Mourinho is in defiant mood. Nothing new here then eh?

    But, while football's narrative may not be all too surprising, today and for the next three days we are given a gift. We visit that place where the stout flows like water and the hills are a crisper shade of green - welcome to the Cheltenham Festival.
