    Thought it would be a good idea to get a thread for cheltenham special offers.

    Obviously the most talked about offer of the festival so far is the PP money-back special on Dunguib. Do any other bookies have offers running at the moment? Are there any bookies going "non runner, no bet" as yet?

    Ladbrokes are NR - no bet.

    PP have done exceptionally well with their offer on dunguib and it is a very shrewd move on their behalf. Obviously Dunguib has a massice chance in the Supreme and by virtue of their offer punters will not backing Dunguib in PP shops. Plus as it is the first race of a bumper Cheltenham a lot of people will be betting with PP in the first race. That will mean a lot of punters in their shops for the first race. Irrespective of the result of the first race a lot punters will be betting with PP for the remainder of the day - that is 5 more races to get cash for PP. If Dunguib wins people will be collecting their stakes back and more than likely place it on some of the other races on Day 1. Win win for PP.

    Celtic paying out on Dunguib I thought was good, mind you you had to have backed it with them....

    PP Dunguib as said above, best offer so far.

    Ladbrokes are NR - no bet.:rolleyes: Not exactly earth shattering, just a week before everybody else and a week after Celtic.

    What do people think will be the other Big offers during the weeks ahead?

    I'm sure there will be a Big 4 all to win at special odds
    (MM, Big Bucks, K Star and Dunguib) somewhere soon.
    Gonna be tough enough to attract people into a shop unless you have a good special, mind you most of the people having bets during Cheltenham wouldn't know one end of a good offer from the next and these are the reason there will be good value out there for the rest of us.
