Cheltenham Ante-post Tips – A Recap of OB’s Live Chances from Staking a Claim

Over the last 20 weeks we have had two ante-post Cheltenham tipsters giving us a selection per week and now is the time to see how they have gone as we edge closer to the start of the 2023 Cheltenham Festival.

As is the way with ante-post punting, there are a few selections that won’t even make Cheltenham and one or two picked for the wrong race, but before the final declarations are announced, it looks like OB will be getting a run from 16 of his 20 picks.

See all the picks below with the links to all the write-ups from the time of selection. We have also added the odds when tipped and the odds today.

Of all the selections, we only need to scratch off Jet Powered who will not be running in the Supreme Novices Hurdle, Three Stripe Life who was fatally injured and Tellmesomethinggirl who is unlikely to take her chance.

El Fabiolo was one of the selections that has been picked for the wrong race with him set to take his chance against Jonbon in the Arkle on day 1.
