Brown Advisory Novices’ Chase Odds, Tips, Free Bets & Betting Offers
Craig Jones
Run over three miles, the Brown Advisory Novices’ Chase is a gruelling test for a novice chaser. With 20 fences, jumping accuracy is a must, and those involved at the finish are likely to have a say in major chase races moving forward.
Previously known as the RSA Chase and now called the Brown Advisory Chase, the race is essentially the Gold Cup for novice chasers. Several horses, including Denman and Lord Windermere, have won this race and the Cheltenham Gold Cup the following season.
