How to Bet With Your Sky Bet Cheltenham Money Back as Cash Special
If you are betting in the first race of the Festival, then why not take a shot at a horse further down the pack, that could potentially get your week off to a flyer?
Mystical Power and Firefox do look worthy of favouritism, but it is Mistergif that catches the eye at 12/1. Trained by Willie Mullins. This is another talented French horse at Mullins' disposal and one that we should keep an eye on for this festival opener.
