Cheltenham 2019 Guide

Hey Team!

A great day for Matched Betting with lots of the favourites winning so money back on a few offers, and plenty of profit if you backed an outsider for the refund offers. Tomorrow is normally the biggest day in terms of price boosts and there may be a few more offers cropping up throughout the day.

Moplay have been officially announcing offers quite late in the day so expect something from them. If you haven't done their sign up yet, do it now! The free bets are almost instant and it's a simple bet £10 get £30. You can find the guide here.

Below I've updated the offers for day 4 and will keep it updated throughout Friday morning should anything else profitable arise. Be sure to head over to the Oddsmonkey's Forum if you have extra time/a bigger bank so you can target some more refunds such as the 2nd/3rd to sp, and of course the extra place offers!

Things to note:
- Bet365 is back on the 15:30 race
- Bethard is now £50 max winnings
- Sportpesa have a new offer but be careful, it needs to be done just before the off
- Moplay potentially added for 5:30 race (keep an eye out)

Best Odds Guaranteed

Best odds guaranteed is a promotion that most bookies offer on the horses. If you bet on a horse and the price increases, and it wins, you will receive payment for the increased price. This can be extremely profitable and you can read more about it here.

Alot of the bookies restrict when you are eligible for BOG (best odds guaranteed) though, and so you need to try and keep your betting within the correct times for each bookie, just incase you qualify. Some will allow you to bet at any time and be eligible, but others may be "day of the race", or "after 9am on the day of the race". See the list below for more info on when a bet can be placed!

Anytime
- Boylesports
- Skybet
- Paddypower
- Unibet

From midnight (day of the race)

- Betfair
- Brucebetting
- Coral

From 7am

- Betfred

From 9am
