Altior: a record-breaking chaser
Altior - 6/4 for the Betfair Tingle Creek

Altior 6/4 with sponsors for Betfair Tingle Creek Chase


Altior is 6/4 favourite with the sponsors after 14 horse were entered for the Betfair Tingle Creek Chase at Sandown on Saturday December 5th.

Nicky Henderson's star pleased connections with a racecourse gallop at Newbury on Saturday and is set to make his seasonal reappearance at the Esher track.

Greaneteen has the benefit of an outing this term, winning the Haldon Gold Cup at Exeter. He could be joined in the field by stablemate Politologue who landed the Betway Queen Mother Champion Chase at Cheltenham.

Rouge Vif, taken out of Sunday's Shloer Chase because of the testing ground, is next in the betting ahead of Defi Du Seuil, last year's winner of this race who was pulled up after the second last at the weekend.

Betfair spokesman Barry Orr said: “Altior heads a fantastic list of entries for the Betfair Tingle Creek Chase. Nicky Henderson’s stable star put up a tremendous performance when winning the race back in 2018 and heads the betting at 6/4.

“However, he is far from certain to have things all his own way with a strong quartet of entries from Betfair ambassador Paul Nicholls, who has saddled a record 10 winners of the race.

Betfair Tingle Creek Chase, Betfair bet: 6/4 Altior; 5/1 Greaneteen, Politologue, 8/1 Rouge Vif, 10/1 Defi Du Seuil, 12/1 Duc Des Genievres, 16/1 Magic Saint, Waiting Patiently, 20/1 Fox Norton, 25/1 Brewinupastorm, Castlegrace Paddy, Simply The Betts, First Flow; 40/1 Esprit Du Large
