Ryanair Chase Odds

The Ryanair Chase is a relatively new race in the grand history of the Cheltenham Festival, but in that time it has produced many memorable races.

As a Grade 1 national hunt steeplechase, it earns a lot of attention from punters looking to place a bet due to its placement on day three of the Cheltenham Festival.

In fact, such is its popularity, it has begun to rival the Stayers’ as the highlight event of the day. You can find the latest Ryanair Chase odds and betting markets right here at BetUK.

About The Ryanair Chase

The Ryanair Chase is a hugely talked about race at Cheltenham, and its Irish dominance in recent history means it is a firm favourite of those looking to celebrate St Patrick’s Thursday at the festival.

Despite not necessarily having the pedigree of older races, it is still a huge draw for the top trainers, jockeys, and horses, and has produced some extraordinary moments of excitement each year since its first running in 2005.

Those early races had Grade 2 status, but this was upgraded to Grade 1 in 2008.

Throughout its existence, the race has covered a distance of 2 miles and 4.5 furlongs on the New Course. This, coupled with the 17 fences that need to be navigated, makes the Ryanair Chase slightly more about endurance and stamina than it is about swiftness and speed, although the winners will have a balance of both areas.

The race is open to horses that are aged five or above, although to keep it as competitive as possible, competitors must have a British Horseracing Authority rating of at least 130 to be involved.
