'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?

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?
