2025 Ryanair Chase

Not quiet so easily now as J not entered for Ryan
Energ is though.
Maybe it will happen the other way round?

Think Energumene will go Ryanair if they don't think the ground is soft enough for him for the QMCC. The combination of Gaelic/El Fabiolo (CC) and Energumene/Fact To File (Ryanair) makes a lot of sense - for all that I've been pushing a slightly different combination for the last 6 months!
 
Everything bar Gaelic being backed in this tonight. Wide open !!!!
 
I think Jungle Boogie interesting at a price …..was long on exchanges but come in fair bit now

looked good in GC til ran out steam

Prob goes here

He's a solid E/W bet, IMO, too, and added him last night funnily enough (using the 25% boost).

When you consider half the top end of the market are unlikely to run in the race, he's an obvious one to shorten in the betting, and I think connections have mentioned the Ryanair after talking about him too.

So when you said you take no notice of the markets you meant on the day markets?
Sorry…. Just a bit confused

Yep, more Saturday when punters get swayed by the paper talk and morning show. Some crazy flip flopping odds .

Maybe. You get the odd one that has substance behind it but that's rare. Punters should just stick to their guns and not go the FOMO route which distorts the market and gives a false impression and ultimately a negative result.

FOMO is a far more dangerous pastime when there's less information to hand.
More information + More financial interest of others also = more likelihood of a successful outcome.
No guarantees of course.

Clever from him - get as many of Galopins opponents into the Ryanair so the 3 peat is easier.

Willie will have one of Gaelic, EF or Energumene in there for Paul to ride anyway you'd think.

Fact To File cash out back up again, probably on the back of JM pouring a little cold water on Spillane Towers participation.

May explain the money coming for Corbetts in the big one as well. I’d say Corbetts would be unlikely to win a Ryanair or Gold Cup but Fact To File would be a strong fav in the Ryanair but would be unlikely to turn form round with Galopin, especially if beat again at the DRF.

Agreed and I think if you take F2F out of the Gold Cup it's wide open for a place or sneaking a win if anything happens to Galopin.
