Betfred have installed Long Run as the 11/4 market leader at the head of the 34 horses entered into this year’s Cheltenham Gold Cup
Betfred are also going non-runner no bet from Thursday morning which will be of benefit to those wanting to back Grand Crus, who is entered in both the Gold Cup and RSA Chase.
“Long Run and Kauto Star currently head the market for the Betfred Cheltenham Gold Cup after their epic tussles in both the Betfair Chase and King George this season but Grands Crus is an extremely interesting entry and punters can now back David Pipe’s novice safe in the knowledge that they will get their money back should the horse take up an alternative entry at the Festival,” said Betfred spokesman George Primarolo.
Kauto Star is the 4/1 second-favourite with Betfred despite lowering the colours of Long Run on two separate occasions so far this season.
