Big Cheltenham outsiders and shock winners! The enchanting factor of The Cheltenham Festival is the appeal of bagging a big outsider. Considering the number of runners attracted to the abundance of prize money on offer during the week of Cheltenham Festival 2025, it is no surprise that a number of big priced winners crop up during the week. 
We check out the best Cheltenham Festival 2025 long shot bets with our partner firms Bet365, William Hill, Betfred, Bet Victor and Boylesports.
Each Way Betting
Some of our partners are offering enhanced places on certain handicap races so look out for these as well as offering extra places on the championship races, although these offers will be advertised nearer to race days.
NRNB
Non Runner No Bet is now available with all of our partner firms. This means if you place a bet now for Cheltenham Festival 2025, all stakes will be returned if the horse is withdrawn at any stage.
Kiss Will, The Supreme Novices Hurdle, Tuesday March 11th
Kopek Des Bordes is clearly all the rage for the opening race of Cheltenham Festival 2025. However, as mentioned in our dark horses preview, we feel the other Willie Mullins runner Kiss Will could be anything after pleasing jockey Paul Townend in his maiden hurdle win at Fairyhouse. Good each way value with William Hill at 20/1.
Ga Law, The Ultima Handicap Chase, Tuesday March 11th
Ga Law loves Cheltenham and previous form over the course has always been key for winning the Ultima Handicap Chase. Irish horses have not performed great in this race down the years, so this British trained horse does fit the profile. 
He should be involved at the business end and looks solid each way value at 25/1 with William Hill (paying 4 places) or 14/1 with Bet365 (paying 5 places).
Langer Dan, The Coral Cup, Wednesday March 12th
He couldn’t possibly win a third consecutive Coral Cup for trainer Dan Skelton??
He’s not had a great season and weighted now to his best but 16/1 with William Hill cannot be ignored!
Aston Martini, The Coral Cup, Wednesday March 12th
This Nicky Henderson trained six-year-old ran on well to finish second behind Altobelli in a decent Ascot handicap. Altobelli went on to win again so the form holds up well. Decent value at 25/1 (William Hill, Bet Victor, Betfred and Boylesports) or 20/1 with Bet365 and paying 5 places.
Editeur Du Gite, The Grand Annual, Wednesday March 12th
Editeur Du Gite has some decent Grade One performances behind him but has failed to fire this season. The Gary Moore trained 11-year-old has slipped right down the weights and could be worth a few pennies each way at 40/1 with Bet365.
Envoi Allen, The Ryanair Chase, Thursday March 13th
He is no doubt the forgotten horse of the Ryanair Chase. The Henry De Bromhead trained former winner of the race is reaching his twilight years but still pulled off a Grade 1 win at Down Royal last autumn.
Solid each way claims at 16/1 with Bet365, Bet Victor, Betfred and Boylesports.
Gemirande, The TrustATrader Plate, Thursday March 13th
The Venetia Williams trained winner of The December Gold Cup has had two difficult runs since that course and distance victory and now looks to be back on a more winnable mark. The nine-year-old will be there or thereabouts if returning to form. Best odds 16/1 with Bet365 and Bet Victor.
Cracking Rhapsody, The County Hurdle, Friday 14th March
Connection of this horse would love to see The Cheltenham Festival held at Kelso. If that were the case, Cracking Rhapsody would probably be a short priced favourite for this competitive handicap hurdle. However, the horse is in good stead and looks great each way value at 25/1 with Bet Victor.
L'Homme Presse, The Cheltenham Gold Cup, Friday 14th March
This tough stayer from the Venetia Williams yard demonstrated his Cheltenham Gold Cup credentials in style with a convincing victory over Stage Star in The Cotswold Chase over course and distance. Needs more to get competitive with Galopin Des Champs but does have a live each way chance if running to his best. 28/1 with Bet365.
