William Hill Trophy Handicap

A 3m1/2f Handicap Chase which often features past and future Grand National runners.

Despite being a handicap this has been a good race for punters in recent years.

William Hill Trophy Trends

It's rare for a Handicap Chase at the Cheltenham festival to be won by a horse carrying over 11 stone. Its much safer to look for an improving horse towards the bottom of the handicap.

Eight of the last twelve winners carried 10 st 11 lbs or less

Only one favourite has won this race since 1977

2009 William Hill Trophy Handicap Tips

Ferdy Murphy has really gone to town on the chases recently at the Festival with winners at 50/1, 33/1, 33/1, and 20/1! It would seem that the North Yorkshire trainer gears his season to the end of year prizes and he is definitely a trainer to consider when making your selections.

We tipped his New Alco early in March 2008 at 12/1 and he only found An Accordion too good but still rewarded each way punters with a nice profit.

Out tips for 2009 will be available nearer to the race in March.
