There is arguably no better combo than Willie Mullins and the Cheltenham Festival, and after seven winners at last year’s meeting, including a Friday four-timer, he’s back with even more firepower this time around.
A seven-time leading trainer at Cheltenham, he is the most successful trainer in Festival history and has already clocked up 72 winners as we head into this year’s big meeting.
In 2020, he won the Champion Bumper, Ryanair Chase, Triumph Hurdle, Albert Bartlett and the Gold Cup, to name just a few, but will he add to his incredible record this March?
We’ve taken a look at some of his stable stars and picked out which races they could be heading towards this year.
