Cheltenham Festival: Our top tips for picking this year s winners

THE Greatest Show, the Cheltenham Festival, is upon us once more. The horse racing will be ultra competitive, but it is still possible to pick winners and make a profit. Here is one very simple rule to help you find a few winners at decent odds. Finding Winners CONCENTRATE on horses which either won or finished second at last year s festival. That simple rule highlighted six winners last year – Sire Du Berlais 10/1, Politologue 6/1, Concertista 9/2, Champ 4/1, Al Boum Photo 100/30 and Envoi Allen 4/7 – which made a level stake profit of just over four points. Of the 24 beaten horses, nine finished in a place, three at double figure odds, which means that 15 out of 30, or 50 per cent of the horses which finished first or second at the 2019 festival finished in a place last year. That is not a bad base to work from.
