Website launched for Cheltenham Festival 2012
In preparation for Cheltenham Festival 2012, a new website has been launched where horse racing fans can obtain all the information they need.
This site features the latest horse racing news, as well as articles about classic Cheltenham races, famous horses and jockeys. This will be the place to keep track of any developments that may affect the outcome of the races, and find top betting tips. Furthermore, visitors to the site will find a Cheltenham race schedule, complete with runners and odds, for races on all four days of the Festival: Champion Day, Ladies Day, St Patrick's and Gold Cup Day.
The section dedicated to Cheltenham travel information will come in particularly handy for those hoping to visit Cheltenham Festival 2012 in person, with details for trains and cars as well as maps of the local area. With around 220,000 people expected to attend this year, the advice on parking at Cheltenham could also prove useful.
This site is also available on your mobile. This means smartphone owners could have the start times, runners and odds for every race in the palm of their hand, whether they're at the bar, in the grandstands or the parade ring. Best of all, however, is the opportunity to avoid the commotion of Prestbury Park's betting ring by placing bets directly through the Cheltenham Festival mobile site.
The National Hunt meeting has been held at Cheltenham racecourse since 1911. In 2012, there will be four exciting days with 28 different races, including the Betfred Cheltenham Gold Cup, the Queen Mother Champion Chase, and many more. As well as these high octane races and appearances from the sport's big names, Cheltenham Festival is famous for its thrilling atmosphere, boosted by big betting wins and plenty of champagne.
