The Grand Annual is one of those races that offers those run of the mill handicappers who run the minimum distance of just over two miles an opportunity to have their glory at the Cheltenham Festival meeting. The other thing that distinguishes this race is that it is named after Nicky Henderson's father and as such, each year he goes all out to win it.

Grand Annual Chase Odds

The Grand Annual odds will be available when the online bookmakers price up the race. This will happen when they have an idea of who is likely to run in the race.
