Willie Mullins has dominated this in recent years so it's probably best to look no further than MY GREAT MATE, the mount of Paul Townend from the yard's 3 runners. Don'tstopthemusic has looked a good prospect in bumpers since finishing midfield in a maiden hurdle at the 2022 Leopardstown Christmas meeting and he may provide a bigger threat than the selection's stablemate Uncle Pat.
