    2026 Ryanair Chase

    I’m a huge fan of the Boxman, but I’d be worried with this wind issue and his mentally afterwards I’d want to see how he runs in a competitive 3 miler before I start backing antepost King George and Ryanair, maybe a shit at the betfair chase if ground is good

    I tried antepost betting on this race last year, and was on East India Dock. He lost, fair enough, but to a 100/1. Said I would never do it again Do feel for those trying to get a antepost position, especially with Nas being knocked out 2-3 weeks ago glad i dont bother this with this race...

    I know it after timing, but I did notice Kabral stopped very very quickly after winning the Relkeel One to watch out for going forward or whether they pick anything up regarding his wind

    Loved being at Cheltenham on Tuesday, there make some great improvements around the course - most noticeably being able to take your drinks out and about. However, I switched off after the Turners Novices. You, like everyone involved with the sport, spend so much time and effort in the run up...
