"Windy hedge" for Cheltenham

If I ever buy a horse this would be a good name! But this isn't the name of a horse. Regular readers will know that Cheltenham last year was a bit of a mare. They abadoned racing on Wednesday then bundled in those races to the Thursday and Friday. That made things mighty tough. Sky bet have offered up a bet this year for odds that racing will be abandoned in the event of a windy day. Odds offered were 150-1. Based upon how much it cost me last year I may have a few quid on that. That said, it shows how unlikely a repeat performance is!
