2008 Cheltenham Festival Multiple Bets
With the Cheltenham Festival only days away, excitement is starting to build steadily in the run-up to what promises to be one of the most intriguing and competitive events in many years. The 2008 Cheltenham Festival betting markers are particularly active, with the pecking order established in the odds tables for all the festival’s key races.
With strong favourites featuring in several of the key 2008 Cheltenham Festival races, many punters will be focusing on placing multiple bets. Novice punters may not be aware of the opportunities offered by multiple bets which allow them to bet on the outcome of more than one race, and in so doing substantially increase the odds available to them when the prices for each horse are multiplied. To claim these bets, the chosen horses must win in each of the races selected.
One of the most popular multiple betting options is betting on the winners of the four major 2008 Cheltenham Festival races, the Queen Mother Champion Chase, the World Hurdle, The Champion Hurdle and the Cheltenham Gold Cup. Punters placing multiple bets on the antepost favourites for these races stand to benefit from odds of around 5/1 (depending on fluctuations in the prices for each horse), whereas a single bet on any of these runners would probably yield even money or less.
