2018 Mares Hurdle Betting

There is a lot to like about what you’ll find in the 2018 Mares Hurdle betting market for the upcoming Cheltenham Festival. A whole lot of solid mares are ready to take on this race and it’s usually one of the big legs in multirace wagers for the opening day’s action.

This year, just as we tend to see in many other years, there is a very discernable standout favourite standing atop the market and tending to dominate things in the ante post wagering.

Apples Jade is your reigning favourite for the 2018 Mares Hurdle and you’ll find her trading as low as an 8/13 price tag in the markets right now with a few bookmakers going in the 4/7 or 4/6 range at the time of this writing. This price has been hovering around there for quite some time and you have to assume that the odds are only going to drop from here.

Lets Dance proves to be a pretty able competitor for the Talented mare and you’ll find her available at a price anywhere between 5/1 and 8/1 depending on whom you’re wagering with. If she gets the right type of run - or is able to capitalize on a mistake from the favourite - then she could be right in the mix here at the end of the race.

Vroum Vroum Mag is also in the mix here and she made a big impression delivering a big win a few years back when going into the race at a very short price. These days, you’ll find her available at around 7/1 all the way up to a 10/1 margin.

Benie Des Dieux is also an interesting shout here with a few bookmakers pricing her at 5/1 while others go as high as a 10/1 margin - bringing her into each-way betting territory.
