2026 Ryanair Chase

Impaire et passé left in for this (for now). What are the chances we get a run? Has anyone heard anything? Betfair and willies MO say unlikely, but still in there 🤷‍♀️ 🤞🤞🤞🤞

Does Betfair say unlikely? For someone who hasn't got a full grasp of how the exchanges work he's currently 3rd favourite for this, shorter than Heart Wood who definitely runs.

Pretty sure he was much bigger for this yesterday.

Need to figure out how the exchange works.

Might mean both F2F and Gaelic go GC.

It definitely doesn't have him unlikely imo. But what it actually knows is up for question. We've already seen Mighty Park suspend as favourite for the Turners before not being taken out the race 5 minutes later this week.

Last matched at 11/1 IEP for the Ryanair. That's plenty short enough antepost in a win only market. Definitely doesn't suggest not running anyway.

Yes, it's that very unhelpful price really. Not long enough to suggest he doesn't run and not short enough to suggest he does. What would he go off against this lot? 5.0? 6.0? Probably similar to Banbridge. In which case it's betting about evens that he turns up.
 
Has to be a positive doesn't it - I'd think he's odds on to run now
Impaire Et Passe chins Fact To File :sick:
 
That would be the worst 25/1 winner I've ever had
 
Youd have to strongly fancy him if f2f and gaelic dont run

I really dont understand why hes not been targeted here all season

Youd think ryanair and aintree would be the 2 big aims for him

And if they werent aiming for the ryanair get him out early enough for the grade 1 jonbon won a few weeks ago

Yeah bit if a joke really. Why not run here 🤷‍♀️ was less than 4 weeks since his reappearance though…..Willie not usually a fan.

That’s what I was getting at. Generallly a 6/1 NRNB poke so 11s doesn’t scream he’s running or not l, though as others have said he was 20+ a few days back. Make a decision Willie ffs
 
Every chance he runs (y) dependant upon how the field looks..

I could go on another rant about it being caused by one yard having all the good horses but i really cant be bothered to do it again

I’d have thought IEP has been kept in as stone bruise cover for F2F.

This is based on my opinion that F2F won’t be supplemented for the Gold Cup tomorrow and Gaelic runs in the Gold Cup even if F2F has a late issue.

If F2F lines up then he is saved for Aintree.

Yeah fair assumption. I wish they’d just roll the dice and let him go here then FTF and Gaelic to the gold cup. I just want to see the best racing….not a load of dodge pots. I’d be livid if I was munir on this one.
 
12/1 Impaire ante with 365

I've chanced that myself, they sound like they're seriously considering it.

And done muggy roll up tomorrow w/ Duc de roche T3 & Kilometre Illimite

Is that the rumour doing the mill? Let’s hope so. I couldn’t care less whether he runs instead of FTF or against him, just think it’s a joke they’ve not let a previous festival winner back to have another go

Certainly won't be 'instead' of F2F

Asked someone who would know - definitely in consideration, looking at how it will cut up
