Cross Country Chase Odds

The second day of the Cheltenham Festival is full of Grade 1 races but also features the one-of-a-kind Cross Country Chase.

Taking place after the feature race of the day, it is one of the most specialist Cheltenham Festival races and is a key preparation race for the Grand National as it features many national hunt chase obstacles which will need to be negotiated at different heights and distances in order to pass the post first.

As this race is run after the feature race of the day, there is the chance that odds can fluctuate in the build-up to the race itself. Especially if a jockey or trainer manages to land a win earlier in the day.

Overview Of The Cross Country Chase

Established in 2005, when the Cheltenham Festival was extended to four days, the inaugural Cross Country Chase was won by SpotTheDifference.

Offering punters the chance to bet on one of the most unique races to be contested at Prestbury Park, the cross-country course contains 32 different obstacles over a distance of approximately three miles and six furlongs.

It is run as a conditions race instead of a handicap.

This specialist race has seen many past winners return on multiple occasions, the most famous of these is possibly dual grand national winner Tiger Roll.
