The big day may have come and gone, but there's plenty of sporting excitement to savour as the festivities run on towards the new year.
Horse racing is a grand old British tradition on Boxing Day, and 2024 will be no exception as punters flood into Kempton Park for the King George VI Chase.
The race is dripping in prestige and will draw the biggest names in the business back to Surrey for a shot at glory.
Hewick, who cost his owners just £800, burst through the pack from last to first in the 2023 edition to cause an almighty upset as Shishkin stumbled at the second last.
Boxing Day offers a terrific slate of free-to-air racing action on ITV, and we have the full schedule below.
