Willie Mullins admits swift Ryanair return not ideal for Outlander

Willie Mullins has admitted the Ryanair Gold Cup at Fairyhouse tomorrow is "coming a bit quick" for Outlander as he aims to bounce back from his fall at last week's Cheltenham Festival.

Having completed a hat-trick of wins over fences in the Grade One Flogas Novice Chase at Leopardstown last month, the eight-year-old travelled to Prestbury Park as a major contender for the JLT Novices' Chase, but came to grief four fences from the finish.
