The Grade 2 Old Roan Chase is run annually on the Mildmay Course at Aintree over 2 miles and 4 furlongs, with sixteen fences jumped.
Established in 2004, it’s a race that some top-quality horses have won over the years, but it is best known for being won a record three times by the Nicky Richards-trained Monet’s Garden.
Frodon was also a popular winner in 2018 under Bryony Frost, with the duo then going on to win the Ryanair Chase at the Cheltenham Festival the following March.
The Old Roan Chase is a highlight for spectators, and it is often one of the most well-attended races at Aintree Racecourse, outwith the Grand National meeting.
