From Kelso:
Twenty-one of the forty-two entries for Kelso’s bet365 Morebattle Hurdle are in with a chance of winning a £100,000 bonus, paid if the winner is able to follow up at the Cheltenham Festival.
Cracking Rhapsody, winner of the bet365 Morebattle Hurdle in 2024 and 2025, is one of nineteen Kelso entries that hold an entry for the County Hurdle on the final day of the Cheltenham Festival.
Dedicated Hero, a former graded race winner at Haydock, is one of four entries that hold a potential bonus-winning engagement in the Coral Cup. Trained in the Scottish Borders by Sandy Thomson, who took the 2023 Morebattle Hurdle with Benson, Dedicated Hero will be reverting to hurdles following a short spell over fences
The Irish challenge is likely to be headed by I Started A Joke. The Charles Byrnes hurdler holds the most entries for the Cheltenham Festival including the Turners Novices Hurdle, the County Hurdle, the Coral Cup and the Martin Pipe Conditional Jockeys Handicap Hurdle.

Sounds like you can safely bet I Started A Joke at 6s if you fancy him.
