As the 2010 Cheltenham Festival approaches the betting markets will really pick up and the Cheltenham markets will be one of the most frantic on the exchanges as we lead up to the four day extravaganza in mid-March.

Last year the Kauto Star and Denman storyline for the was one of the most interesting in all of sport. This year we are looking at yet another chapter in this enthralling ongoing saga between the two horses who between them have won the race in the last three years and I suspect it'll be a fourth year when all is said and done come sunset on March 19th.

With both horses having won the Cheltenham Gold Cup before it leads many to believe that they are both good bets. A good track record around Cheltenham often tends to indicate that the horse has good stamina and staying power at the final straight. These are valuable assets to have for horses looking to win at Cheltenham.

We hope you win big with your Cheltenham bets and that our team over at betting.betfair will help you win big in March.
