Champion Chase odds are on paddypower.com and prices for the leading contenders can be seen on our snazzy widgets below.
Energumene is the favourite with Paddy Power to win the Champion Chase and make it back-to-back victories in the race. The nine-year-old looks set to follow the same path to Cheltenham having kicked off his season by strolling to success in the Hilly Way.
Edwardstone, the winner of last season’s Arkle over course and distance, is next in our antepost betting and heads the home charge, despite unseating his jockey in the Desert Orchid last time out.
Willie Mullins’ second string, Blue Lord, has come on leaps and bounds in his second season over fences and is also prominent in our early market after an eye-catching victory in the Paddy’s Rewards Club Chase over Christmas.
