The Cheltenham Festival is one of the highlights of the UK's annual sporting calendar, and arguably the biggest horse
racing event in the world. Cheltenham Festival betting is a subculture in itself, as the dream of a big winner can be conceived
years before the race, and once the final race is run on the Friday attention immediately turns to next year and the road
begins once more.
The Festival dates back to 1860, with the styling and creation of a 'Championship' meeting a product of the early 20th century.
Current Cheltenham highlights the Gold Cup and Champion Hurdle were first run in the 1920s, and today there are 27 races run
over four days in March, with a total prize fund approaching £4 million.
If prize money is valuable, the turnover created by Cheltenham betting dwarfs this, as horse racing fans across the country
seek out the best Cheltenham odds in the annual battle with the bookmakers. Go to a UK or Irish racecourse on any day of the
calendar and you are sure to find someone peddling Cheltenham tips.
The Festival is beloved by everyday punters and the purists alike, and the genesis of backing a winner can vary from an overheard
whisper in the pub to months of in-depth form study through Cheltenham betting guides. The elation is similar however, with
the camaraderie a tangible feature of the Festival experience; so get studying the form, find the best Cheltenham odds, and
join the ride on the greatest show on turf.
