Ryanair Chase 2021

[Nortons who]

Doubt Frodon will set a decent pace.
.

He definitely won't unless he's supplemented. Frodon only currently entered in the Gold Cup

Yep, aware of that, was talking about G cup

Apologies Q, I read this out of context.

Allaho backers will be pleased....

Back on track....

[Craigy14]

Much better from Allaho.

Not getting over excited but those are the tactics he needs, go from the front. Problem will be if he’s able to in the Ryanair.

He jumps really well which is always an asset for a chaser haha!

[FinalFurlong91]

Yes that was better and he looked as though he would be much better going left handed

Considering the pace him and balko des flos went off at I thought he was beat jumping the last but he sped away

Not brilliant but not putting my slips in the bin just yet

[Brooksie]

Looked like he had a lot left in the tank imo. Great prep run for the RA. Good run from the 2nd too, miles clear of the rest

[Kevloaf]

The jockey bookings will be so interesting.

Min and Allaho both look like they want to be ridden the same way?

They'll have to work that out beforehand.... and who does Paul Townend pick? Can he jump off the current Champion? Would be some statement about how much they fancy Allaho.

Depends how they're working in 40-odd days time I suppose!

[Brooksie]

79 lengths to be exact haha

Yeah PT got a tough decision. I can see him picking Allaho with a gentle nudge from Ruby

My worry for allaho would be that Min will jump and travel faster than him

a bit like frodon he could just get taken out of his comfort zone

if he does manage to go with him youd fancy him to outstay min up the hill

Saint Calvados entered in the 2m 5f Betfair Chase at Ascot on Feb 20th.

Makes Melon coming here less likely now.
I've mentioned it before but the three of them can't get on with it surely ?
He could easily win the Irish Gold cup looking at the entries and likely runners too.

I wonder if they'd just let them all bowl along naturally and just see who is best on the day?

You'd assume they're not stupid enough to light each other up ...


A bit early to worry about tactics I suppose but can't help getting carried away.
