in with a shout informal Having a good chance: they were definitely in with a shout of bringing off a victory...- Currie were still in with a shout but their best chance failed when Ramon took a marginally forward pass from Halbert before crossing the line.
- Militis has a better chance in the 200m backstroke but both swimmers should be in with a shout of the finals, and from that point anything can happen.
- Pearce still thinks others have better credentials, but now that it is apparent that he really is in with a shout, he is not about to jeopardise his chances by ruling himself out.
