A Different Kind of H.O.R.S.E.

For all the poker players out there who have yet to be taken in by the Cheltenham Festival you will be now. Millions up and down the country will be glued to their TV sets as two of the best horses in a generation go head to head in the Cheltenham Gold Cup. There can be no more eagerly anticipated race this year with Kauto Star winning two of the last three Gold Cups and Denman the other. Both horses are trained by Paul Nicholls in Somerset and if one of these two horses does not win the race then something has gone seriously awry.

Cheltenham this year has seen the Irish trainers suffer with many favourites struggling to even place. Master Minded and Dunguib were both absolutely nailed on according to most punters and then struggled to compete at all. It really has been a bookies festival so far. The luck of the Irish on St Patrick’s Day wasn’t even enough to help the Emerald Isle in their hour of need.

If your luck has been deserting you on the horses, Rakeback.co.uk will continue to look after you. With just over ten days to go until next month’s promotions are released the competition for this month are heating up. For new players there are still lots of opportunities to qualify for a rake freeroll held next month so hit those tables and put the bad news of Cheltenham behind you.
