Cheltenham is traditionally a time of year where bookmakers dig deep and offer their most generous free bet offers. 

Over the years the free bet offers that used to be launched on Tuesday (Day 1) have been coming earlier and earlier, and it's not unusual for firms to showcase their Day 1 offers on the weekend before the off.
