    Cheltenham Festival Day 4 Trends

    The Cheltenham Festival is the most competitive racing on the jumps calendar, as the leading horses from the UK & Ireland do battle across 28 races. However, down the years it’s often seen horses win at numerous Cheltenham Festivals and form around the undulations of Prestbury Park can prove to be vital.

    Handicap races are often the toughest to win, but that is where the trends can often aid you in your quest to find you the winner, as some races can see the lightly-weighted horses dominant, or some can see those at the head of the handicap come out on top.

    So, it’s so important when finalising your Cheltenham Festival bets that you don’t just look at the season form, but also look at the trends and stats, as some jockeys or trainers could have a fine record in a certain race, or the favourite can have a glowing record.
