Cheltenham Festival Betting Preview: Queen Mother Champion Steeple Chase is the feature race for Style Wednesday as we look at odds and offers for Day Two!

Queen Mother Champion Chase is the feature race on Day Two of the Cheltenham Festival

Day Two of the Cheltenham Festival is upon us and the Queen Mother Champion Chase is the feature race of Style Wednesday which is better known as Ladies Day.

Betway are the sponsors of the Queen Mother Champion Chase and have El Fabiolo the odds-on favourite at 1/3 to win the race after Jonbon was pulled out.

El Fabiolo won the Arkle against Jonbon last year and this year will be hoping to win the Champion Chase.

Bookies are of course offering odds for the full day which should again prove to be as entertaining as it always is, with Tuesday's Racing delivering brilliantly.

Day Two of the Cheltenham Festival kicks off with a Novices Hurdle Race at 1:30 with another big day on the way.

The full list of races for Day Two of Cheltenham, including start times, are shown below taken from the Jockey Club's site:
