Ryanair Chase Betting Odds 2023 (March Update)

Here are our betting odds for the Ryan Chase race at Cheltenham Festival 2023. Initially, when Allaho was confirmed as missing the Ryanair, the betting market was wide open. But that quickly changed when Shishkin demolished the field at Ascot, in his prep run for the race.

The former Champion Chase winner is now odds on to win the Ryanair, moving up in trip, and is a best price of 8/11.

Behind the Henderson runner, Blue Lord and Conflated are both 11/2.

What Happened in 2022?

We saw a wonderful performance from Allaho in 2022, backing up his win 12 months earlier to become a dual winner of this race. Paul Townend had a simple ride onboard, and would come away from the field in emphatic style to record a winning distance of 14 lengths.
