Whenever we enter a new year, thoughts immediately turn to Cheltenham. The 2017 Festival takes place in March. Which horses are among the favorites, in our ante-post betting markets right now?
Why Ante-Post Betting Odds Are So High
Remember that an ante-post bet is not the same as a bet made on the day of the race. You will not be refunded, if your horse does not take part in the race. This is why ante-post odds tend to be much higher, than the prices you can find during the Festival.
