The most popular spread betting market at Cheltenham is the winning distances. Sporting Index quote 112-120 for the meeting and I had considered going low. One of the problems with that is that one of at least five horses which could start odds on could easily win by a big margin. The biggest winning margin in an individual race looks a more interesting play.
Over the last four festivals the biggest race margins have been 24 (Junior last year), 9, 16 and 21. Sporting Index quote 17.5 -19 this time. Coral bet 7/4 over 17 lengths, so if you'd obtained the Coral price you would have won at two of the last four festivals. Surely the higher number of "good things" this year increases the chances of an 18+ length win? I have had:
12 pts win @ 7/4 biggest winning distance at Cheltenham is over 17 lengths with Coral
