While Cheltenham does not take place for another few weeks, the interest and excitement start building early and racing punters both experienced and Cheltenham only, are on the lookout for getting tips and insights into this year’s festival from those in the racing industry.

The event last year was hugely entertaining and insightful, and promises to be bigger and better this year

There is an all-star racing lineup once again for the event all of whom are giving their services to generate much-needed funds for Cliona’s.
