Day two of the Cheltenham Festival features a host of top races, and none more so than the Queen Mother Champion Chase. This premium Grade 1 race showcases some of the finest two-mile chasers in the business and promises to be a thrilling contest. At the time of writing, Nicky Henderson’s Jonbon is the odds on favourite at 5/6 with sportsbook CopyBet, but his record at Cheltenham offers encouragement to anyone looking to oppose.
Jonbon has suffered three defeats over the Cheltenham fences and for that reason alone, 9/2 shot Marine Nationale will have plenty of backers. A previous winner of the Supreme Novices’ Hurdle, he has shown significant improvements in recent times and will be expected to challenge.
Currently third in the betting is Energumene at 7/1 and the Willie Mullins trained horse has a strong record at Cheltenham, winning this race in 2023. He’ll likely be a popular each way bet with CopyBet paying out on the top three places.
