Grand Annual Challenge Cup Chase 2023 Result

16:50 Wednesday 15 March 2023

JOHNNY HENDERSON GRAND ANNUAL CHALLENGE CUP HANDICAP CHASE (PREMIER HANDICAP) (1)

 Distance: 1m 7f 199y (Old)
Prize: £70,337 Age: 5yo+ Race Type: Chase Going: Gd/Sft

A Grand Annual contested mainly by ones who hold few secrets from the handicapper, the runner-up - and well-backed favourite - a notable exception, but it was still a typically competitive contest; the gallop was an honest one thanks to Global Citizen, but it still proved hard for those off the pace to get involved, Third Time Lucki faring easily the best of them; a trio held every chance 2 out only for Thyme White to crash out and the runner-up to make errors at the last 2, not that the winner would probably have been any different.
