Ultima Handicap Chase Betting News
Second at last year’s Cheltenham Festival, Jagwar is well fancied to go one better in 2026 and is a leading contender in the latest Ultima Handicap Chase betting. Iroko is set to be a primary challenger for the Grand National next month, but is a classy staying chaser, whilst last year’s winner Myretown could look to claim back-to-back wins. Handstands, Hyland and Quebecois are another trio of runners that could take their chance.

Betting on the Ultima Handicap Chase
With a huge field lining up in the Ultima Handicap Chase, then it’s always a wide open betting heat for punters to get stuck into. With 20-odd runners lining up then each-way betting is popular amongst punters, while it’s a race that can often see springers in the betting in the lead-up to the race.
A competitive handicap over 3m+, the Ultima Handicap Chase will see proven, experienced chasers take on improving youngsters, so the betting can often favour either of those performers. However, it’s certainly a real puzzle for punters looking to find the winner and the Ultima Handicap Chase odds are fascinating.
