'Finian's Rainbow is 20/1 for both the Arkle and the Jewson at Cheltenham....back him for both, because whichever one he ends up in he'll be around a 3 or 4/1 shot on the day'

if he ended up 3 or 4/1 for either race You'd have a fair bet, not sure what Your point is?

Jewson is a different race this year, no longer a handicap.

The Jewson is not a different race.

the jewson novice chase is now a 2m4f grade 2 weight for age contest.

just pointing this out because the sp fav prices for previos years are now meaningless in the context of the new jewson

Apologies.

Jewson sponsor the new race alright.

The old Jewson is still in place but is now a rubbish race for 0-140 rated novice chasers and forms the next step in completely devaluing the festival.

So long as the championship races keep their status, I don't see why a few extra races devalue anything. Would the King George be devalued by having a maiden hurdle on the same card?
