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

Style Wednesday is the second day of the famous Cheltenham Festival and you'll traditionally know it as Ladies Day with a fashion extravaganza usually on the cards.

On the course though is a hugely entertaining day of racing with the Queen Mother Champion Chase the feature race of the day, going off at 15:30.

Bookies are of course offering antepost odds for the race which will go off a week on Wednesday and we already have a clear favourite in the betting market for this one.

Betway are the sponsors of the Queen Mother Champion Chase and they make El Fabiolo the odds-on favourite at 4/9 to win the race ahead of Jonbon.

El Fabiolo won the Arkle against Jonbon last year and this year will be hoping to do so again in the Champion Chase.

What the expert says...

El Fabiolo is the clear favourite to win the Queen Mother Champion Chase on Day 2 at Cheltenham with the current betting odds putting him clear of any others in the market.

OLBG sponsored trainer Harry Derham currently has one early entry for Day 2 at the Festival

OLBG sponsored trainer Harry Derham is expected to have a busy Cheltenham with a number of runners currently having early entries for the week.

Imagine is entered into the Brown Advisory Novices' Chase on Day Two at the Festival with the horse also entered into Day 3's Turners Novices' Chase.

Harry announced that new recruit Imagine is on course for running at the Cheltenham Festival and it's likelier that it'll be on Day 3 in the Turners Novices' rather than here on Day 2.
