Sir Ken: Cheltenham Festival record
Sir Ken has won 3 races at the Cheltenham Festival, from the 1952 Champion Hurdle to the 1954 Champion Hurdle.
Sir Ken matched Hatton's Grace with three consecutive Champion Hurdles from 1952, and his 2/5 in 1953 was for decades the shortest price returned by a winner of the race.

Festival runs only. Wins in the championship races are on file back to 1924, and the first four home in every race from 2022, so this is a Cheltenham record rather than a full career history.
