Am thinking a decent related double could be Galopin Des Champs in the Savills Chase on 28/12 and Fact To File Ryanair. The old warrior puts the new pretender to bed in the Savills over 3 miles and Willie tells JP lets go win both Gold Cup and Ryanair in 2025 and take Fact To File to win the Gold Cup in 2026.

Feels like Willie is planting the seeds for this:
“I thought that trip might suit him better, he'd be sharp enough for that trip. We didn't know, we just went there,” Mullins told journalist Dave Keena.
“Nothing that Fact To File does would surprise me, he has everything going for him.
“He could probably win shorter races than Galopin Des Champs.
“He's going to have to take on Galopin Des Champs over a trip and that's going to be a different ball game. He's going to have to get past him.
“Galopin Des Champs is a man and Fact To File will have to improve, I think, to get past him over the Gold Cup trips.”
Willie Mullins feels that Fact To File still has to improve to get the better of dual Gold Cup winner Galopin Des Champs over three miles.
Although I'm heavily invested in Gaelic for the Ryanair as many on here might be aware, I covered the Gaelic (CC), Fact To File (Ryanair), Galopin (Gold Cup) treble to really good cover a little while back so I'd be happy if it did play out that way!
