Read below in order to find a Matt Chapman Grand National tip as the Sun columnist and racing expert readies himself for Saturday’s highly-anticipated steeplechase at Aintree.
Matt Chapman Grand National Tip (Saturday 15th April 2023)
Matt Chapman, who is a widely-respected racing columnist for the Sun and TV host for ITV, has given his verdict for this year’s Grand National, and when asked who he thinks the winner will be, he said: “Delta Work. I think he is a class act and, on the back of his Cross Country Chase win last month, will make up for his third in this race 12 months ago.
“I also like the look of Longhouse Poet, The Big Dog and defending champ Noble Yeats.”
- DELTA WORK @ 8/1
- THE BIG DOG @ 25/1

Matt Chapman Tips At Aintree For The 2023 Grand National
Delta Work @ 8/1
As he mentioned in the quote above, the 11-time career winner’s most recent triumph came on the second day of Cheltenham in the Cross Country Chase, with a total of nine of those victories coming from 20 starts in chases.
The 10-year-old has experienced a sizeable shift in the Grand National markets following his Cheltenham victory, jumping from early-season odds of 25/1, right the way down to a current price of 8/1.
Behind only to fellow 2023 runners Noble Yeats and Any Second Now last year, he enters this contest having dropped 5lb and holds strong form, indicating a push to rectify the misfortunes of 12 months ago.
The Big Dog @ 25/1
Although Matt Chapman threw several names into the hat with his predictions, it is worthwhile focusing on a slightly longer-odds selection in The Big Dog.
25/1 appears to be excellent value given his credentials, and an affliction for soft ground may well suit this stayer. Although he took a tumble at the Grade One Irish Gold Cup while in the lead with three fences to go, previous form this season includes victories in the Troytown at Navan, sweeping aside fellow Grand National candidate Lifetime Ambition, while also a respectable third at Chepstow in spite of a five-pound raise.
