Willie Mullins column: Weekend preview


Our star columnist has runners at both meetings in Ireland on Sunday. Check out his thoughts.

Leopardstown Sunday

14:00 Saint Sam

The conditions of the race really suit him, and the trip won’t be a problem either having won over two-and-a-half miles at Punchestown in December. A lot of things suit him on Sunday and with a clear round he’ll be hard to beat.

14:35 Parmenion

This might be an opportunity for him. He’s been running in good company and disappointing us a little. He’ll be happy on the ground at the weekend and maybe going up in trip will be a bit help to him.

Wexford Sunday

15:25 Braganza

Another who has been disappointing, and she drops back in class on Sunday. She’ll need to improve on what she’s been doing of late. She looked a very exciting prospect when winning on her first start for us at Thurles last season. She has cheekpieces on for the first time and maybe the smaller field will help her jumping.

17:10 Dancing City

He was second in this bumper last year but shouldn’t meet anything of the quality of Three Card Brag this time around. I’d be hoping he can open his account for us.
