Hello all.

Will not be mentioning new account holder offers in this thread as they are varied and full of terms and conditions. Suffice to say if you do not yet have an account with some firms next week (Tuesday especially) would be one of the better times of a year to do so.

I will list the offers already in place below and update daily with all I can find. As ever Tuesday will be the best day for offers and even if for a relatively small amount will provide lots of value.

As has been said by a few people of late there has never been a better time to be a £10-£20 horse racing punter, however if you do not receive BOG or other promotions from the firms below assume you will not get these offers (or ask the firms yourself).

CONFIRMED OFFERS FOR EXISTING ACCOUNT HOLDERS. TERMS ARE IN BOLD/ITALICS OFFERS ARE PRESUMED ONLINE CHANNELS ONLY UNLESS STATED.

SKYBET : SkyBet are offering ALL customers money back as a free bet if your selection loses. Applies to the first race of each day at Cheltenham Festival: Supreme Novices, Neptune, JLT, and Triumph Hurdle. Max free bet refund £25. CONDITIONS

link here https://m.ladbrokes.com/en-gb/#!promotion?promoId=1543 Excludes the first race of the day seems the same terms as above offer otherwise.

WILLIAM HILL : William Hill will not be beaten on price promotion. The more i read into this the more doubts i have. The odious Jon Ivan Duke (Hills Pr Man) has stated on Twitter you will be able to get on what you normally can! So all seems vague if you do not have BOG now you wont suddenly get it. If you have 45 minutes read below. CONDITIONS

Good work John, thank you.

Hopefully others will do the same if they spot stuff.

It's sort of wasted posting it on Fred, far better as a standalone thread.

The sky freezer offer question

If I place a bet on first race every day of £25 at end of week I will have only cost me £25 of which I now have a freezer token for assuming I lose all my bets?

Bit of luck I'll find some that I'm eligible for :D

Cheers John.

thanks that's great, had already bookmarked some of these but now they are all in one place.

Quick question on the Laddies one. Channel 4 races - these are the first 5 races each day?

Also Betfair sportsbook are doing an offer. If I remember correctly. If you have a winner first day above 3/1 price then you get three free bets. Not sure how good that one is really, but it is something...

Boyles are also doing a free bet if you are second or third to the SP favourite up to £25. This seems like a pretty good one for the races that have a very short favourite. Arkle, Neptune, Queen Mother, World hurdle etc

Cheers for doing this, always very helpful.

Cheers John.

Before I try and find my Grid Card, do you know if you can do it online and also in shop, for the Laddies offer, or are the email addresses tied in?

Good question Adz

I must be honest i have no idea what a "grid card" is guess a loyalty card in shop? Lisa will know!

Loyalty Card.

Seems they will do both!!

Next question.

Is the betfair offer of 3 free bets on every winner on day 1? Obviously it would need to be your first bet in each race, I presume?

Re betfair

•           Applies to win singles and win part of each way singles on any race at Cheltenham on Tuesday 15th March 2016
•           Back a winner at SP odds of 3/1 or greater in any race on Day 1 (15th March) of the 2016 Cheltenham Festival and receive THREE free bets matching your initial stake up to £/€25 each
•           E.g. Back a winner at SP 3/1 for £/€25 - you will receive your £100 winnings in cash as well as THREE £25 free bets
•           Does not apply to singles contained in a multiple bets e.g. Lucky 15
•           Your first cash bet on each race from Thursday 3rd March will be your qualifying bet.

Also free bets must be used within 48 hours.

That seems a very good bonus for getting a winner, be good to have a sportsbook account! Or a lads one for that matter, shops it is here may be some other good offers in shops tomorrow.

Stars bet are offering free bets up to £10 if 2nd or 3rd.  No idea how competitive they will be.   

Bet365 are doing their usual Best Odds Guaranteed (on bets from 10am on day of race, compared against Ladbrokes, William Hill, Paddy Power, Coral, Betfred and Boylesports) and Channel 4/1 offer (back any winner at 4/1 or more and get a free bet of up to £50 on the next race) that they do on all Channel 4 races every Saturday.

Now, it's what they do every week so it's not a Cheltenham thing, but it does seem to my untrained eye that it stacks up well against the 'special' offers the other bookies are doing.

10bet have some daily specials, Tuesdays dont look amazing but will try and post them along with the rest tomorrow (time permitting)

Any firms likely to do any extra specials for the champion hurdle, ie pay four places? Or can I get my bet on now???

Doubt you will get 4 places

However tomorrow between 10am and probably about 12pm be surprised if it isnt a 98% book or better at somepoint

hold fire imo

You are unlikely to get a worse price in the morning. Eg seems likely someone will go 3/1 Annie Power.  4 places is less likely, but still possible. Would definitely wait.

Not an offer but this account is useful

https://twitter.com/WindOps

As name suggests the person is trying their best to publicise horses that have wind ops since last run that are running at Cheltenham. Of course they dont all work e.t.c but it is good to have this information pre race to help with the decision making

The internet is an amazing place.

Very useful. Is there anything similar for headgear etc?

Unlikely, that is marked on the racecard though and in the comments

CORAL: Bet £20 on the Supreme Novices' Hurdle (13:30) and get a £5 free bet for every Mullins-trained winner on Day 1.

BETFRED: 'Price boosts from 10:30', no idea how good this is going to be...
UNIBET: Again, 'Price boosts from 10:30', no idea how good this is going to be...

Thanks Drop

Not really that good but if the 4 timer does cop and you bet with Hills worth being aware of

Can anybody advise on best way of using uk betting sites when in Vegas (brag)

Yeah bit of a long shot that I investigated after Unibet 'offered' 33-1 on the Mullins lot winning. Best price 35-1 on oddschecker 

The best way is a VPN

Surprised just Paddy offering 4 places at worse terms in the opener

The last two years must have been pretty expensive

10 bet have this one hidden away and you have to opt in and use the free bet at cheltenham but

http://www.10bet.co.uk/promotions/sports/cheltenham-10-free-bet/

Basically bet £20 on any race today and get a £10 free bet to use this week at Cheltenham

not to bad if your playing on using them

Just had a notification in Singpore, Paddy 7/2 Min

10p :)

How good is the VC offer for cash back as free bet if your horse finishes 2nd to a Mullins trained horse?  Is this a good way of getting against his short priced ones and also a way to be onside with some of his fancier priced options? 

It's £25 on the win part, I guess there are some Math geniuses on here who are able to calculate the +/- EVNS on this. 

Thanks to Peter I have a chunk on there burning a hole in my pocket and I am ready to unclip, and get against Mullins in every race.   #Goingforglory

It is going to be very good if the Mullins horse is very short and victor is near top price on your selection. 

Value out there at best prices even before the offers

supreme currently a 99% book
Arkle a 100% book
champion hurdle a 97% book (3/1 in a few places on Annie Power)

Main thing today would be corals are 6 places in their coral cup.

Not brilliant prices but not awful at least don't use some of the firms going 4 ffs

Load up on Yorkhill in the first with all the sites using the refund if favourite wins and refund if second promotions?

365 is the only site I see paying out five places on the Fred Winter, will more follow?

Cant see much for today?

Stan J are 4 places 1/4 the odds in the first. Only firm doing this I think. Paddy are 4 places 1/5

cheers berg

normally some madness on the gold cup at somepoint
