Cheltenham Festival ante post punters were out in force this afternoon, with Coral seeing plenty of money for two leading Irish trained hopes, Quel Esprit in the Neptune Investment Management Novices Hurdle and Captain Cee Bee in the Irish Independent Arkle Trophy.
Coral cut Quel Esprit to 8-1 clear favourite from 10-1 for the Neptune Novice Hurdle and Captain Cee Bee to 6-1 second favourite from 6-1 for the Arkle behind 5-1 market leader Sizing Europe.
“The freezing temperatures may have played havoc with the racing programme but it hasn’t deterred racing punters from steaming into a couple of Irish hotpots for Cheltenham,” said Simon Clare, Coral Spokesman.
