Betting on the Cheltenham Festival is one of the highlights of many a punters year. With so many sensational races in such a short space of time - it is one of those times of the year where punters can down tools and sit in front of the TV and computer and enjoy the spectacle of horse racing at its finest.

Cheltenham betting is frenetic and the exchanges will see odds tumbling and drifting every second as fans find other fans who'll give them the prices they want on horses. This is one of the biggest benefits of betting with Betfair - you are not betting against the bookmaker but against another person. This means you'll often find it a lot easier to find a horse with the odds that you like.

Finding good Cheltenham odds is something that you can do on your own but here at Betfair we think having a helping hand can never be a bad thing. Therefore we have a team of dedicated writers over on betting.betfair who keep their ear to the ground and fingers to the keyboard to keep prospective punters in the loop with regards to the form of horses, weather, going and possible injuries to horses or jockey changes. It is a one-stop shop for all your Cheltenham Festival betting needs and you can be sure they'll be covering the Cheltenham Gold Cup with a fine toothcomb.

Betfair doesn't think this is enough though and offers a free £25 Cheltenham bet for all those who want to open a new account with the company. Place a bet up to the value of £25 on any race during the Cheltenham Festival and should that bet not come in - Betfair will refund your stake and give you a second chance to win big on the Cheltenham races.

We hope you enjoy your Cheltenham Betting experience with us. We aim to provide you with the latest news and the best Cheltenham odds and we think this combination makes us a great place for you to start betting.
