At Salmon HQ, antepost Cheltenham bets are something of a rare commodity, but after last night's winning double and a quick revision of the Cheltenham odds, something stands out. Binocular, who was so impressive at the weekend is still available at 100-30 for the Champion Hurdle! This looks a huge price with Coral especially as numerous other large bookmakers offer only 5-2. Indeed, the simple fact that Hills offer second best price of 3-1 suggests that Coral are out on a limb here.
Chief rival in the betting market - Hurricane Fly, races this weekend, as does Solwhit, and as such, an impressive or unimpressive performance could turn the market on it's head. However, I would not put anyone off having a small dabble on the reigning champ. It seems certain that Binocular will run barring any major mishaps, and I don't think the price will lengthen dramatically between now and the festival. Let's throw some of last night's profit at the Bins and look forward to March!
Binocular (Champion Hurdle Antepost) 100-30 Coral [1.2 points win]
