The RSA chase has been a good pointer to future gold cup success recently with Denman, Bobs Worth and Lord Windemere all doubling up in the following season.

No RSA winner going forward this year but Smad Place, Many Clouds, Sam Winner and Carlingford Lough might look to do a Long Run and improve on their novice years.

Imperial Commander used the Ryanair as a stepping stone to success in ravings blue riband chase. Can Dynaste ?
