Durkan winner is favourite for the Ryanair but only has Galopin Des Champs in front of him in Gold Cup betting
Durkan winner favourite for Ryanair but has only Galopin Des Champs in front of him in Gold Cup betting
The subtext looks a lot like waiting to see if Galopin Des Champs comes through the next fortnight unscathed but Fact To File still presents his ownership with a tricky stick-or-twist scenario.
Fact To File is still a 6–1 second favourite in Gold Cup betting but is a general 6–4 market leader for the Ryanair. Cheltenham’s most successful owner brought his overall festival tally to 78 last year with five more winners. His best-ever haul was seven in 2020. McManus’s first winner was Mister Donovan in 1982 but rarely has he gone into the biggest week of the year with such firepower.
