Snow impacts Cheltenham Festival predictions for horse races

Snow has arrived at the Cheltenham Festival, prompting a shift in predictions for the Cross Country Chase. VANILLIER is now favored to win, having shown strong recent form, including a victory at Punchestown. In the Queen Mother Champion Chase, JONBON is expected to perform well after winning three races this season. He has yet to secure a win at Cheltenham but is seen as a strong contender. For the Turners Novices' Hurdle, THE NEW LION is highlighted as a top pick after an impressive win in December. BE AWARE is favored in the Coral Cup, while MIDNIGHT IT IS is noted for potential success in the Grand Annual.
