The New Lion to win Turners Novices Hurdle (3\/1 odds to win from Coral)<\/p>\n <\/div>\n
Your kick-off race at Cheltenham is all about letting the new talent roar, so who better to take the spotlight than The New Lion? This runner\u2019s got serious potential, having won his last four races on similar courses like Newbury, Chepstow, and Market Rasen<\/strong>. Add in the fact that he\u2019s ridden by former British Champion Jump Jockey Harry Skelton (2020-2021<\/em>), and it seems like the perfect combo to make easy prey of Turners Novices Hurdle. Don\u2019t get us wrong – with Final Demand and Kawaboomga in the mix, the competition\u2019s fierce, but 3\/1 odds are a great shout.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n\n

Better Days Ahead to place in Brown Advisory Novice Chase (10\/1 odds to win from bet365)<\/p>\n <\/div>\n
Ballyburn or Dancing City likely have this one in the bag, so it\u2019s the place positions that make the most interesting Cheltenham Races betting tips here. Better Days Ahead is our pick of the bunch, thanks to stellar showings at Leopardstown (second place<\/em>) and Navan (first place<\/em>) in recent months. The odds are sound too, at 10\/1, and a \u00a310 each-way bet would net you a \u00a330 return if it places<\/strong>. Better Days Ahead has shown real potential across multiple courses, against tough competition, and with different jockeys like Danny Gilligan and Jack Kennedy, so we reckon the chances are strong.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n\n

Energumene to Win BetMGM Queen Mother Champion Chase (10\/1 odds to win from Coral)<\/p>\n <\/div>\n
The best horse racing tips don\u2019t just pick a winner, but one that\u2019s flying under the radar \u2013 and we reckon this one\u2019s a beauty. Energumene has raced 14 hurdles, winning 11 and never failing to place \u2013 now that\u2019s a solid record<\/strong>. With three wins in the last four races and only a loss to favourite JonBon in January, we believe the 10\/1 odds are an overreaction. With a string of amazing runs and star jockey Pete Townend in the saddle, we\u2019re backing Energumene to defy the bookies\u2019 Cheltenham predictions.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n\n Cheltenham Betting Tips Day 3 \u2013 St Patrick\u2019s Thursday\n <\/h3>\n \n\n
\n St Patrick\u2019s Day at Cheltenham has an atmosphere like no other and is chock-a-block with top-class races, including the dual main events: The Ryanair Chase and The Paddy Power Stayers\u2019 Hurdle<\/strong>. With the best the country has to offer competing, we reckon you could use a few more Festival betting tips.<\/p>\n\n\n

Il Est Francais to win Ryanair Chase (4\/1 to win odds from BetVictor)<\/p>\n <\/div>\n
Fair warning, the Ryanair Chase is a proper head-scratcher when it comes to picking a winner. The field is stacked with legends, but all of them have had a bit of a wobble leading up to this race. So, who\u2019s been the most reliable? For us, it\u2019s Il Est Francais. James Revely and this fine beast set a cracking pace at Kempton<\/strong>\u2013 a real statement of intent, even if they finished second. Just 50 days earlier, they trounced the field at Auteuil. With Gaelic Warrior and Spillane\u2019s Tower both hundreds of days clear of their last victory, we reckon Il Est Francois has the edge here.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n\n

Home By The Lee to win The Paddy Power Stayers\u2019 Hurdle (7\/1 to win odds from BetVictor)<\/p>\n <\/div>\n
Teahupoo may be the favourite for The Paddy Power Stayers\u2019 Hurdle, but we\u2019re tipping Home By The Lee to nick it by a whisker. It\u2019ll be a tight one, no doubt, but Home By The Lee\u2019s been on top form since coming back from a 182-day break, with solid wins at Leopardstown and Navan<\/strong>. Teahupoo\u2019s a proper beast, but after a loss at Fairyhouse following a 213-day break, we\u2019re not so sure. At 6\/1, this could well be one of our best Cheltenham tips.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n
