2024 Mildmay Novices Chase Preview

The 2024 Mildmay Novices Chase has drawn a small field with four entries priced over the 5/1 marggin.

The race favourite is Inothewayurthinkin, winner in the Fulke Walwyn Kim Muir Challenge Cup at Cheltenham last month, who looks a solid stayer but is nevertheless underpriced.

Next in the betting is Iroko, who finished 5th in the Grade 1 Turners Novices Chase at Cheltenham in March. He finished 3rd in the Sefton Novices Hurdle at Aintree last season.

Priced at over 10/1, Broadway Boy is an interesting selection. Offering better value than the other entries, he has won three times over distances over 3 miles this season.
