The Cheltenham Festival, a four-day horse racing event, is a significant occasion for betting, with bookmakers frequently providing special promotions. These offers can take various forms, including free bets, which may be part of welcome bonuses or available to existing customers through 'bet and get' schemes.
Other promotions include enhanced odds or price boosts, where the odds for a horse or multiple bets are improved. Some bookmakers also offer 'Non-Runner No Bet', which voids a wager and returns the stake if a horse does not run. 'Best Odds Guaranteed' ensures that if an early price is taken and the starting price is higher, the bookmaker will pay out at the better odds if the horse wins.
Money-back specials are also common, potentially refunding losing bets on a specific race or requiring a selection to finish in a certain position for reimbursement. The '2nd to the SP favourite' promotion is a frequent money-back offer available during Cheltenham. Punters are advised to always read the terms and conditions of any offer, paying attention to minimum deposits, odds requirements, and wagering requirements.
