LISTEN: Cheltenham Festival Preview with Billy Lee

LISTEN: Cheltenham Festival Preview with Billy Lee

Gary Toohey was joined by former jumps and current Group 1 winning flat jockey Billy Lee and Mark Fanning from Boyle Sports for the The Iconic Media Cheltenham Preview.

Gary goes through all four days at the festival with Billy and Mark as plenty of arguments develop including what race Honeysuckle should of gone for. 

Billy is very bullish about a Willie Mullins runner at a price in the Turners Novice Chase while Gary reckons a 22/1 shot in the Gold Cup won't be out of the places and Mark puts up a 20/1 selection for the Albert Bartlett. 

Boyle Sports kindly put up €100 in free bets for the panel as they pick out 7/1, 14/1 and 22/1 chances with the profit going to Cliona's Foundation. Gary, Mark and Billy also pick out a €25 win treble at circa 25/1 again hoping for more profit for Cliona's.  

The Iconic Media team would like to wish Billy all the best for the 2023 season ahead. 

This show was produced and edited by Gary Toohey.
