Cheltenham Festival Bets Include Number Of Pints Of Guinness Sold
Wednesday 04 March 2009 at 11:45
Cheltenham Festival bets are becoming wackier and wackier and amongst Paddy Power’s specials for the Cheltenham Festival is a market on how many pints of Guinness will be sold at Cheltenham.
175 000 Pints Of Guinness Expected To Be Sold
There is always a strong Irish contingent at Cheltenham and that should ensure plenty of Guinness is sold during the week. Paddy Power are predicting a slightly conservative figure with under 175 000 pints rated the 9/4 favourite. Paddy Power go 5/2 that it is between 195 000 and 215 000 pints whilst between 215 000 and 235 000 pints is 3/1 with Paddy Power. For all the possible outcomes visit the Paddy Power website.
More Days To Be Abandoned£
Another Cheltenham Festival bet Paddy Power are offering is the amount of days that will be abandoned. Last year gale force winds led to the Wednesday of the meeting being abandoned and recent heavy rain in the area has led to speculation that the ground will be very soft (potentially waterlogged). Paddy Power are convinced that there will be no problems however, they go 1/25 that no days are abandoned. One day is 6/1, two days is 25/1, three days is 50/1 and all four days to be abandoned is 100/1 with Paddy Power.
How Loud Will The Cheltenham Roar Be£
Paddy Power are also betting on the decibel level of the Cheltenham roar. 101 to 110 dB is the favourite and can be backed at 9/4 with Paddy Power. 111 to 120 dB is second favourite at 3/1 whilst 90 to 100 dB and 121 to 130 dB are both rated at 4/1 with Paddy Power. All of the possible outcomes are on the Paddy Power website. The loudest they think it could be is over 140 dB which is 12/1.
