Caracciola - popular with the punters.

The weights for the ten Cheltenham Festival handicaps were published on Wednesday, and the first horse to attract serious support was the Nicky Henderson-trained Caracciola who was backed into 14-1 from 25-1 with Coral for the Grand Annual.

Meanwhile totesport have installed the Mark Rimell-trained Oneway as their 6-1 clear favourite for the Grand Annual.

Totesport spokesman Damian Walker said: "Oneway also has an entry in the Queen Mother Champion Chase but surely connections will opt for the Grand Annual as he would have to find at least another 20lb improvement to trouble the big three in the Champion.

"Oneway won off 143 in great style at Sandown last time and looks well treated off just a 6lb higher mark at Cheltenham."

In other market moves, Star Performance was well supported in the Sporting Index Handicap Chase and is now 7-1 second favourite from 10-1 with Coral behind the 5-1 favourite Spotthedifference.

In the new Fred Winter Juvenile Handicap Hurdle, two of the 14-1 market leaders - Bonbon Rose and Loyal Focus - were deemed not qualified to receive a handicap mark. Coral will return any ante-post wagers placed on the two horses.

Venn Ottery, fifth in last years Champion Chase after being backed down from huge odds, has attracted money for this renewal with Hills and is in to 33-1 from 66-1.

Punters are also backing Peterborough Chase winner Le Roi Miguel for the Daily Telegraph crown (7-1 from 10-1), and Carte Diamond for the Triumph, 11-1 from 12-1.
