Cheltenham Preview 2 by Paddy Power (Friday, March 09, 2007)

PADDY POWER CHELTENHAM FESTIVAL BETTING PREVIEW PADDY POWER'S GUINNESS SPECIAL Paddy Power's famous Guinness betting is back for Cheltenham but can punters match last year's record-breaking thirst? With the questionable weather forecasts, lack of St Patrick's Day and tough quest for Ireland to bring home so many winners this year it could be tough but a rare Cheltenham that doesn't clash with Gordon Brown's budget will bring the City Boys down in their droves to take it on. Paddy Power are refreshing their popular Guinness betting on how many pints of the black stuff will be drunk during the big meeting.
