We bring you all the market moves for the third day of the Cheltenham Festival
Faugheen has been backed into the 10/3 favourite in Marsh Novices’ Chase, having been 5/1 last night. The money continues to pour in on the twelve-year-old.
Samcro has been the other market mover in the opening race on day three of the Cheltenham Festival. Gordon Elliott’s horse has been written off by many in the media, but bookmakers have cut his price from 11/2 to 4/1, which puts him as the second favourite for the opener.
Welsh Saint has been made the second-favourite for the Pertemps Network Final at 11/2. He was available to back at 10/1 last night, some bookmakers are now as short as 5/1 and joint-favourite for the race.
Another that has been cut overnight in the Pertemps market is Third Wind. The six-year-old was available at 16/1 last night and is now as short as 10/1 with one bookmaker on Oddschecker. However, 12/1 is still available with a few firms.
Dream Berry has also had a bit of attention overnight, Jonjo O’Neill’s horse was available at 25/1, but is now 16/1 with the majority of bookmakers.
There’s been very little movement in the Ryanair Chase market, A Plus Tard still tops the market at 7/4.
Similar to the Ryanair Chase there’s been very little movement in the Stayers’ Hurdle. Paisley Park is fairly strong in the market, a couple of bookmakers have clipped Penhill to 5/1 from 13/2 in the without Paisley Park market.
Simply The Betts could go off pretty short in the Brown Advisory Plate. Bookmakers continued to cut the price of Harry Whittington’s horse overnight, the 9/2 has gone and is now as short as 3/1 with some firms.
Second-favourite, Deyran de Carjac has witnessed plenty of support in the market. The seven-year-old was available at 16/1 yesterday, however, the best price you are getting now is 11/1, with some firms even going 9/1.
Concertista was available at 11/1 yesterday for the Mares’ Novices Hurdle, however the bookmakers have cut her into second-favourite at 5/1. A few bookmakers on Oddschecker have even gone 4/1.
There’s sure to be one horse gambled in the Kim Muir, early indications suggest Champagne Platinum is well fancied by connections. Bookmakers were offering 8/1 last night, the best price now is 5/1, with one bookmaker even going 7/2.
