Irish bookmaker Paddypower have joined forces with us to offer an excellent special £200 Free Cheltenham Bets Offer...
The Queen Mother Champion Chase Betting is one of the highlights of the entire Cheltenham Festival and at the moment the ante-post odds for the 2012 renewal look mouthwatering. Sizing Europe will be back to defend the crown he won so well last year but there will be a number of challengers to him with one potential star in Finians Rainbow expected to run a big race after finishing second in the Arkle last season.
Another contender in the betting to attract plenty of support is Big Zeb who of course won this race back in 2010 for Colm Murphy. He may be slightly past his best but he rarely runs a bad race and has looked in top form so far this season over in Ireland clocking up some big wins.
