Cheltenham Festival Betting 2012 / Cheltenham Free Bets

Paddy Power the top irish bookmaker is offering extra special value on the following races.

JCB Triumph Hurdle (1.30 Cheltenham Friday) Paddy will pay each way to the top 4 places, paying 1/4 on the top 4 finishers.
In the Vincent O’Brien County Hurdle (2.05 Cheltenham Friday) Paddy Power are paying 1/4 odds to the top 5 finishers.

With the 2007 and 2008 Gold Cup winners taking their chance again this year, the Queen securing victory in the race with Barbers Shop isn’t very likely. The fact that it’s Friday the 13th is irrelevant! Despite that, we reckon trainer Nicky Henderson has his rabbit’s foot firmly placed in his pocket which could soon be joined by a knighthood. “The only reason he hasn’t run is because the races I wanted to run him in were abandoned. He’s much more mature mentally this season and he’s improving all the time. I was extremely pleased with him when he worked with Mad Max at Newbury and the extra distance of the Gold Cup will suit him,” Henderson said, trying to keep her majesty happy. Is Barbers Shop a cut above the rest in the Gold Cup?

Albert Bartlett Novices’ Hurdle
Poetic Justice

‘I saw the danger / Yet I walked / Along the enchanted way / And I said, let grief be a fallen leaf / At the dawning of the day.’ Given that most trainers normally dish out the usual pessimistic “ah, sure he’ll run well if,” we’ve decided to shamelessly pad out the beginning of this story with lines from Patrick Kavanagh’s poem On Raglan Road, which is also a runner in the Albert Novices’ Hurdle. Apart from a recent fall at Doncaster, Howard Johnson’s horse had been progressing nicely. “He was very green on his first race at Hexham and the runs at Aintree and Sandown were down to the trip. You’ll see a much better horse at 3m.” If you back Johnson’s horse, you could be on the road to victory!
