Cheltenham Festival Day 1 Betting Tips
Ultima Chase Tip
Broadway Boy – 8/1
This versatile 7-year-old is continually improving and should be good enough to mount a challenge in this year’s Ultima. He’s attracted some support, as he was as big as 20-1 in the ante-post betting just a couple of weeks ago. He matches several markers, including age and previous experience at the racecourse. The Ultima is one of the few Cheltenham contests that Irish runners haven’t dominated, and a win for Broadway Boy could continue that trend.
Champion Hurdle Tip
Constitution Hill – 4/7
There are plenty of short-priced favourites at this year’s festival, and Constitution Hill is one of the best of them all. Top horses have class, consistency and courage, and he’s got them all. His odds are very short, and Brighterdaysahead will be one of the toughest tests he’s faced, but I believe he’s a special horse and should see her off. He’s one to include in your doubles and trebles!

Cheltenham Festival Day 2 Betting Tips
Turners Novices’ Hurdle Tip
Potters Charm E/W – 12/1
Potters Charm has a very good chance in the Turners. He’s very talented, and his price would be much shorter had he not been coming to Cheltenham off the back of a narrow defeat. He looks like a solid E/W play, especially if you can get Extra Places.
Champion Chase Tip
Jonbon – 10/11
Another short-priced favourite, but can you blame me? Jonbon is just going to win. Looking at the field, you can see that there’s just nothing on his level. He’s definitely one to include in your Cheltenham 2025 multiples.

Cheltenham Festival Day 3 Betting Tips
Ryanair Chase Tip
Jungle Boogie E/W – 15/1
Jungle Boogie is my pick for the Ryanair Chase on Thursday. The contest is hard to call, but he looks like a solid E/W play at his price. His last run was excellent, making all in a win at Ascot. He jumped left during that race, so the Cheltenham course may suit him even beetter. A career record of 5 wins from 7 runs proves he knows how to get his head in front when it matters most.
Stayers’ Hurdle Tip
Lucky Place – 7/1
Lucky Place is a horse with a big chance in a race that’s more open than the odds suggest. Teahupoo is way too short. The Stayers’ can turn into a real slog, and backing a horse priced as short as Teahupoo is not something I’d consider. Lucky Place has won 2 from 2 this season, beating many of his potential rivals in the process. If he runs to his best, he’ll be right up there.
Odds shown are subject to change, and were correct when tipped on 7th March 2025.
Cheltenham Festival Day 4 Betting Tips
County Hurdle Tip
Lark In The Mornin – 7/1
Lark In The Mornin won last year’s Fred Winter and has a good chance of picking up his second Cheltenham Festival win in the County Hurdle. His sole appearance this season was a bit of a washout, but the talent he displayed at last year’s festival means he could be the class of the field in this contest.
Cheltenham Gold Cup Tip
Galopin Des Champs – 4/7
Galopin Des Champs is the third short-priced favourite I’ve picked, but there’s good reason. He’s a cut above the horses he’ll be running against. It would be a real shock if he didn’t claim his third consecutive Cheltenham Gold Cup. Galopin is another one you can add to those Cheltenham accumulators.
