Cheltenham Festival: Paddy’s Non Runner Money Back for ALL 28 races at the 2025 showpiece

We all make decisions every day. Good and bad. Big and small.
Whether to train for that marathon you entered on a whim or whether to back Arsenal to win the Premier League. Letโs face it โ neither is happening, right?
Anyhoo, you no longer have to decide whether to have an ante-post bet on Cheltenham 2025 because โ and you may need to lean against a stationary object for this.
Paddy Power is now Non Runner Money Back on ALL 28 CHELTENHAM FESTIVAL races from midday on Friday, January 31.
But the Cheltenham Festival is still six weeks away, Paddy; thatโs crazy talk.
Paddy hears you. Paddy donโt care.
ย
So, from noon on Friday, January 31, Paddy Power will refund you as Non Runner Money Backย should your ante-post bet fail to run in the race you backed it for at Cheltenham 2025 โ whatever the reason.
Hereโs how it works โฆ
The Cheltenham Festival will feature 28 races from Tuesday, March 11th to Friday, March 14th.
Following last weekendโs Cheltenham Trials Day, trainers are in full prep mode and this weekendโs Dublin Racing Festival will tell us a lot more.ย
Some horses have just one target โ like Galopin Des Champs, who aims to win his third straight Gold Cup next month โ but may also win his third consecutive Paddy Power Irish Gold Cup tomorrow at Leopardstown.
Also declared is stablemate and current ante-post favourite for the Ryanair Chase,ย Fact To File.ย The latter also has an entry for the Cheltenham Gold Cup, though a call regarding his Festival target will have to be made at some stage.
ย
Thanks to Paddyโs Non Runner Money Back Guarantee, you can back either Galopin Des Champs and Fact To File forย Cheltenham 2025 before they race on Saturday at Leopardstown โ safe in the knowledge that your hard-earned is getting refunded for Cheltenham 2025 if one or either doesnโt make it to the race you backed them for.
ย
You can also take the traditional ante-post price in any race but YOU DO RISK LOSING YOUR STAKE IF YOUR PICK FAILS TO RUN IN THAT RACE FOR WHATEVER REASON.
Simples.
ย
And with plenty of high-profile runners double-entered โ weโre looking at you Lossiemouth and Brighterdaysahead, Paddyโsย Non Runner Money Back offer allows you to stay ahead of the field at no cost should something happen to the best-laid plans.
So, if your Daโs mate down the pub keeps chiming in about getting a tip for an outsider in the Paddy Power Stayersโ Hurdle on March 13th who will only run if the rain arrives, Non Runner Money Back is your go-to guy even if your daโs mate isnโt.
And if you need a steer, Paddy Power Newsโ dedicated Cheltenham Festival site will be firing up all kinds of tips, previews, pods and general mayhem during the home straight and week of the fiesta.
Nothing says Cheltenhamโs a-coming like Paddy hitting the Non Runner Money Back button!
