Cheltenham Day Three: The Trending Multis & How to Claim Betfair’s £30 Bonus
St Patrick’s Thursday at the Cheltenham Festival is traditionally the day of the stayers, where stamina is the ultimate currency.

Timeform Insight: Why These Selections?
The data behind these popular picks suggests they have the tactical profiles required for the unique challenges of St Patrick's Thursday:
- Fact To File (Ryanair Chase): Described by Timeform as "imperious" after his Irish Gold Cup win. He produced a flawless performance twelve months ago and is the undisputed form-pick of the day.
- Teahupoo (Stayers' Hurdle): The defending champion who is notoriously consistent and unbeaten in three starts this season. He is the clear "top of the tree" in the staying division.
- Wodhooh (Mares' Hurdle): Has been "faultless" so far, maintaining an unbeaten season record. Timeform gives her a confident vote to handle this step up in grade.
- Bambino Fever (Mares' Novices'): Impressed at Fairyhouse and looks a highly progressive sort with plenty of scope to improve further in this Grade 2 contest.
Strategic Use of Your 3 Free Bets
With three separate £10 tokens, you can balance your risk across the day:
- The Foundation: Use the first token on the 5/1 Favourites Multi. It is the most logical path to a return based on the afternoon’s short-priced leaders.
- The Jockey Play: Use the second on the 22/1 Jack Kennedy Multi. Following a top jockey in peak form is a classic Festival strategy.
- The Value Hunt: Use the final £10 on a higher-odds play like the 75/1 De Bromhead Multi. A £10 free bet on this would return £750 in cash (minus the stake) if the Knockeen yard strikes gold.
