A word of caution if you use Oddschecker to back horses in the "win any Cheltenham race" market
I used Oddschecker to back Clan Des Obeaux with Hills in the "win any Cheltenham race" market - the confirmation from oddschecker (screenshotted) confirmed the bet was placed however when I logged in to my Hills account after the King George, the bet appeared in my account as being placed on Messire Des Obeaux.
I checked other bets in the same market that I had placed via Oddschecker and found another bet which had been placed on the wrong horse. Again pre-Xmas, I had backed Tornado Flyer but my Coral account showed the bet as being placed on Shantou Flyer.
In both cases, my bets had been placed on a horse with a similar name.
Neither Messire Des Obeaux or Shantou Flyer appear on Oddscheckers list of horses which were available to back so I have no idea how this problem has arisen
Fair play to Hills and Corals, they immediately cancelled the bets when I explained the situation to them.
It may be worth double-checking any bets in this market if you placed them via Oddschecker
