Well, last year you had to be quick off the mark with Sunbets, but they had Altior (which won), Neon Wolf (lost) and others that were huge arbs for £20-25 max stakes.

Starsportsbet is a telephone bookmaker, they normally have some kind of sign-up bonus for Cheltenham, keep your eyes peeled. Also, their daily price boosts can be descent. However, the are a telephone bookie who rarely publish prices, so take the middling odds in the market from oddschecker and work from that.

I am already working on researching potential extra place offers etc.

What sort of boosts did sunbet have last year?

 

[rninja]

Sunbets had some good straight singles on the likes of Altior, Neon Wolf, Douvan etc, which were like 3.5/2.10, 4.5/2.80 sort of ballpark figures for a £20 max stake. The boosts tended to be pulled fairly quickly.

Edit: Betfair preview 28th Feb cancelled due to weather!

Is it best to wait a while for better odds matches or get them placed now?

 

[Stims]

I'll only have the Thursday off this year. I'm Flying to Dublin on the Friday so will also have the morning free.

Last year i did most of my betting on my phone drunk in Dublin and still made a wad so i think this year will be fine.

My only advise would be to get up early and plan.

Personally I would wait. Still lots of time for non runners and prices to change.

Yes. Plan.

I will be working this year so my plan is to get up early and place the bets before work for any money back first race offers plus the last race for the Bet 365 offer, so if it does win I can place the bet on the first race the following morning. Will try to fit in other offers as best I can.

@homie, I think the Bet365 4/1 offer might be on until the 16.10 race each day? haven't checked yet, but I remember in previous years the 16.50 and 17.30 races were excluded from the 4/1 offer.

 

[Jon]

I'm hoping PA / OM etc will do the thing they usually do which is send out an email every morning at 8am during the festival giving you a rundown of all the offers etc in a 'easy glance' mode as Cheltenham can be a bit overwhelming the first time you do it just due to the sheer number of offers each day!!

 

[jkg-jkg]

Once all the runners are declared that first race is going to need a serious bit of strategising over!!!!

They will publish on the website the valid races for each day - just go to the horse racing page and click on the offer on the right hand side and the page it goes to shows you the list

Yeah, It's usually just the televised races isn't it.

I've taken a few gubbings since last year so hoping I can still make a decent amount this time.
