We look at which horses Oddschecker users have been backing for the Cheltenham Festival in March
Samcro - 12.29% of all Cheltenham ante-post bets
Justifying his odds-on favouritism, the ‘New Machine’ stormed to victory in the Deloitte Novice Hurdle. The six-year old remains unbeaten and has been the most popular Cheltenham pick this week, becoming favourite for the Ballymore. He’s a best price of evens to win that particular Hurdle, whilst he’s now 5/1 second-favourite for the Supreme Novices Hurdle.

Killultagh Vic - 5.24%
He may have fallen at the last in the Unibet Gold Cup, but Killultagh Vic did his Cheltenham chances good with a strong showing in the race prior to his fall.
Leading in front, he fell as Edwulf celebrated the unlikeliest of wins, but focus will now turn to the Gold Cup, where his odds have come in to a general price of 10s, but 14/1 is still available.
Min 5.12%
Willie Mullins' horse stayed on well to win the Coral Dublin Chase on Saturday and that performance has seen the seven-year old backed for the Queen Mother Champion Chase. He’s currently seen as Altior’s man threat for the prestigious race and is currently a best price of 3/1 to win.

Supasundae - 4.94%
The new favourite for the Stayers Hurdle after being confirmed for the race by Jessica Harrington, Supasundae further outlined his big race potential by beating Faugheen in the Irish Champion Hurdle at Punchestown this weekend.
After the impressive performance, odds for the Stayers Hurdle were slashed for the eight-year-old, who became 3/1 almost across the board after originally being 6s.
Monalee - 4.22%
A winner of the Flogas Novice Chase over the weekend, Monalee showed impressive jumping skills, prompting interest for both the RSA and JLT come March.
A 6/1 shot for the former and 16/1 shot for the latter, there could well be each-way value for Henry De Bromhead’s seven-year-old, who will look to go one better than last year’s festival effort, where he came out second to Penhill in the Albert Bartlett.
Can see why Monalee has gone as short as 4/1 for the RSA, what a win over the weekend! pic.twitter.com/6glyn0Gdjw
