Grand Annual Chase Ante-Post Tip | 2023 Cheltenham Festival Best Bets

THIRD TIME LUCKI (Each-way) @ 11/1 with bet365

The Grand Annual Chase, which is run on the Wednesday of the Cheltenham Festival, is always a competitive affair and this year looks no different when looking at the early ante-post betting.

There’s a stack of horses vying for the Grand Annual Chase favourites position – but even these are around 8/1 to 10/1 in the betting. One of those horses is the Dan Skelton-trained THIRD TIME LUCKI – a horse that bounced back to winning form last time at Sandown and looks to have a decent chance if making the final Grand Annual Chase runners.

Third Time Lucki Has Won His Last Two at Cheltenham

This 8 year-old has won his last two races at Cheltenham and only last season ran one of the Champion Chase fancies Edwardstone to 4 1/4 lengths in the Warwick Kingmaker Novices’ Chase. That came off a mark of 153 and after a string of poor runs since that silver had slipped back down the handicap.

However, he showed last time out off a 10lb lower rating that he’s still got plenty of ability when winning the Dolos Handicap Chase at Sandown and even when the handicap puts him up for that still looks well-treated. He’s also only finished out of the top three two from 10 runs over fences (4 wins), so has a consistent profile suggests he’s a solid each-way play here.

Cheltenham Festival Race Looks Set To Be Run To Suit

While, finally, with this race often run at a fast-neck pace, this can set things up nicely for this strong traveller to pick them off in the closing stages that makes him the ideal Cheltenham betting tip for the Grand Annual Chase. Trainer Dan Skelton has never won the Grand Annual Chase, but we was the former assistant trainer to Paul Nicholls, who is this race’s most successful trainer with four wins.

Plus, with the safety-net of the Bet365 Non Runner, No Bet on all the 2023 Cheltenham Festival races (including the Grand Annual Chase), then even if the Third Time Lucki doesn’t make the race, you’ll get your money back with this Cheltenham Festival betting offer for new and existing customers.
