Princess Royal Hunters' Chase Tips, Odds & Runners 2026
Princess Royal Hunters' Chase
The Princess Royal Hunters' Chase is one of the most unique races of the Festival — a Listedrace over 3m 2f restricted to horses hunted with a recognised pack of hounds. The amateur jockey element adds an extra layer of unpredictability, and the race has a strong history of producing shock results. With a wide-open market and no standout favourite, the 2026 renewal is a genuine puzzle
The Market
Its On The Line and Wonderwall share market leadership at 5/1 and 9/2 respectively, with Panda Boy also prominent at 5/1. The three-way split at the top of the market reflects the genuine uncertainty in this race — any of the top six could win, and the each-way terms of four places at 1/5 odds make this an ideal race for each-way betting.
Its On The Line has the best form figures of the field and arrives having won his last two starts in point-to-point company. The step up to hunter chase company at the Festival is a significant ask, but his jumping has been exceptional and his trainer has a strong record in this race.
Wonderwall at 9/2 is the each-way pick of the race. He has been running consistently well all season and has the profile of a horse who could produce a career-best at the Festival. His jumping has been clean and accurate, and the 3m 2f trip should suit him ideally.
Our Selection
Nap: Wonderwall (9/2) — Consistent, well-jumping, and the type who could produce a career-best at the Festival.
Each-Way: Cons Roc (11/2) — Progressive, lightly raced, and with the profile of a horse who could surprise at a big price.
Best Odds: Wonderwall 11/2 with Betfair | Cons Roc 15/2 with Paddy Power
