Our expert crunches the numbers to give you the best possible chance of winning a rollover jackpot of £30,000 in our free-to-play prediction game.
4 To Win is Betway's free-to-play prediction game that has been running throughout the Cheltenham Festival.
Simply guess the winner from four chosen races for your chance to win the rollover jackpot of £30,000.
Here are Alan Alger's top tips to get you started...
14.10 – COUNTY HANDICAP HURDLE
TOP PICK: BLEU ET ROUGE
The County Hurdle has been a decent race for bookmakers down the years, with no winning favourite in the last decade and an average winning SP of 20/1.
Horses between five and eight years of age have won the last ten renewals, while their dominance so far this Festival means that Irish horses should feature in our shortlist,
BLEU ET ROUGE received a form boost when Kalashnikov went close in the Supreme on Tuesday and can land this prize.
Honourable mention: Chesterfield
14.50 – ALBERT BARTLETT NOVICES’ HURDLE
TOP PICK: KILBRACKEN STORM
The Albert Bartlett will be a real test for these novices on such testing ground, so we’ll need a thorough stayer as our selection here.
I’ve had my eye on KILBRICKEN STORM for some time in this race, a course-and-distance winner subject to positive vibes from trainer Colin Tizzard.
Honourable mention: Crucial Role
15.30 – GOLD CUP
TOP PICK: OUR DUKE
It’s a tricky-looking field for the 2018 renewal of the Gold Cup.
Sizing John’s absence changes the picture of the race, but his trainer Jessica Harrington has another big contender in OUR DUKE.
He will relish conditions and could be the one to bag the big prize.
Honourable mention: Native River
16.10 – FOXHUNTERS’ CHASE
TOP PICK: FOXROCK
The Foxhunters has had its share of incredible stories down the years, with a spread of winning SPs from 13/8 to 33/1 (twice) in the last decade showing just how unpredictable it can be.
Female jockeys have won the last three renewals.
FOXROCK has the assistance of Katie Walsh, who has already been in the winners’ enclosure this week.
He’s been aimed at this race and looks set to be involved at the finish.
