Any bets placed on the Win and Each Way ‘NRNB’ market will be refunded if your selection does not run. In multiple bets if a selection does not run, that part of the bet will be deemed a non-runner.

Ante-post bettors are often on the lookout throughout the weeks and even months leading up to Cheltenham Festival.

Especially when horses they keep their eyes on run, or when another wins in style and impressing enough to be backed subsequently.

With the NRNB markets you can guarantee your money will be safe from the dreaded declarations as some runners aren’t announced non-starters until the day let alone in the early declaration stages.

bet365’s Racing Expert Pat Cooney said: “Following on from 2 tremendous days racing at Leopardstown, it seems now is an appropriate time to offer the NRNB option alongside our Ante Post betting on all 28 races at the Cheltenham Festival. It’s always a popular choice for ante-post backers to have a money back option if you do back a non-runner once the offer applies to each race.

“High profile horses such as Lossiemouth and Romeo Coolio certainly have good chances in either of their possible races and can now be backed with the NRNB option.

“There will also be many others with multiple entries at the meeting, I well remember in 2021 when The Shunter was entered in 6 handicaps, and was well supported in them all, winning 1 and stakes refunded in the other 5 races!

“Constitution Hill will of course be of considerable speculation, prior to his run on the Flat at Southwell later this month. I expect him to be the most selected in the NRNB markets.”
