Coral's BetMGM Cup Handicap Hurdle Cheltenham 2026 tip

Lots of Grade level horses step into handicap company here for the Cup, which is yet another open looking contest.

Kopeck De Mee steps back over hurdles having fallen on Chase debut, and he looks nicely weighted here and should be highly competitive. 

Further up the handicap is Storm Heart, who seeks a hat-trick here and, having run some good races behind some top class horses, he could be well worth considering here. He’s best over a longer trip and, at 6/1, is a very likely candidate. 

Kateira is on an attractive mark now and is finally reunited with Harry Skelton here, which could be a good indicator.

She has beaten Champion Hurdle contender Golden Ace this term and stays well too, so she could be dangerous on this mark.
