Cheltenham Festival Ante Post Betting Without Favourites

The early Cheltenham Festival ante post betting is now well underway with many of the bookmakers putting up prices about the main contenders and races. Stan James are looking to spice up the rather stagnant Queen Mother Champion Chase and Champion Hurdle markets by betting without the current short-priced favourites Master Minded and Binocular and make Voy Por Ustedes (7/2) and Sublimity (6/1) their respective market leaders. The firm are also offering 14/1 that Denman wins both the Gold Cup and the Grand National in 2009 Interesting that even with Denman short in the Gold Cup are not betting on a market without him as everyone is holding fire until he runs in the Aon Chase at Newbury.

Head of PR Charlie McCann: "Master Minded is 1/2 for the Champion Chase after his brilliant comeback success in the Tingle Creek and with Binocular (5/4) unlikely to be seen ahead of the Champion Hurdle we have decided to give punters the alternative of backing without the short-priced favourites in two of the Festival's Championship races. Voy Por Ustedes is the 7/2 favourite for the Champion Chase without Master Minded although he looks sure to go for the Ryanair Chase and we could be taking a chance with Big Zeb at 5s and Well Chief and 8s. Take Binocular out and the Champion Hurdle is a fascinating market with the 2007 Champion Hurdler Sublimity leading the market at 6/1 and last year's Champion Katchit, who comes alive at Cheltenham, one of five horses priced at 7/1."
