Christmas day has dawned for horse racing fans as the 2022 Cheltenham Festival gets under starters orders at 1.30pm today.
Of course, the best betting sites have offers aplenty and we’ve decided to wade through them all to pick out the ones you need to know about to get a bang for your buck.
The Unibet Champion Hurdle Trophy at 3.30pm is the highlight of the day, as Honeysuckle looks to dominate her male counterparts yet again as she attempts to win the race for a second year on the trot.
But, of course, there are six other mouth-watering contests on the card at Prestbury Park today on what promises to be an unforgettable four days of racing.
Whether it be free bets, sign up offers or bonuses, lets run you through some of the finest Cheltenham offers available ahead of Day 1.
Bumper Betfair Cheltenham Offer Available
Betfair have unveiled a new customer offer that allows you to claim £60 in free bets when you place just £10 on a Cheltenham race.
To be eligible to receive the offer you need to sign up for a Betfair account and use the Betfair promo code ZHRD17 during the registration process. Using this bonus code will qualify you for this Cheltenham offer.
Then, when your Betfair account is registered, you will need to place at least £10 on the Supreme Novices’ Hurdle - the opening race of the 2022 Cheltenham Festival - before it starts at 1.30pm today. Make sure you place a sportsbook bet rather than an exchange one in order to qualify.
Providing you’ve followed the steps required above, Betfair will give you a £10 free bet for the other six races on the Day 1 card at Cheltenham.

NetBet Cheltenham Offer Worth Serious Consideration
While most best horse racing betting sites will have promotions available for the iconic festival, few are as generous as what NetBet are bringing to the table.
They are going to give you a refund as a free bet up to £10 if your selection comes second to the SP favourite on any live ITV race at Cheltenham.
To claim this offer you must sign up for a NetBet account and fund it with one of the many payment methods they have available to you. Then all you need to do is place a single bet of £10 on any race win market at Cheltenham, providing that race is being shown on ITV’s coverage - the vast majority of the races are being televised by the broadcaster.
Finally, you need to make sure your selection is priced on or above 3/1 to be eligible for this promotion. That makes this offer perfect to take on Honeysuckle in the Champion Hurdle or any other short-priced favourite in the festival’s biggest contests, as you will be safe in the knowledge that if your pick finishes second to the favourite you will get up to £10 back as a free bet.

Don’t Sleep On Paddy Power’s Cheltenham 2022 Offer

To do so you must sign up for a Paddy Power account and place a £10 win single or a £5 each-way on the Supreme Novices’ Hurdle - which goes to post at 1.30pm today. That selection must be on a horse with odds of 1/5 or higher to qualify.
