And Willie Mullins is planning an Aintree assault!
He wants that British trainers title and he knows success at the Aintree Grand National meeting is the key.
However, whilst researching and fine-tuning a set of mini-angles for Aintree (angles you can learn
more about HERE) I noticed the following...
Willie Mullins Aintree
Festival record since 2004...
3/71 | 4% S/R | -£51.34 BFLSP
Win & Place - 20/71 | 28% S/R
47% below expectation
That's got to be a worry.
THREE winners from 71 runners is a pitiful return for the major dominating force in the National Hunt game.
That's going to have to be turned around dramatically if he is to land that British Trainers title.
Saying that he is coming absolutely mob-handed this year and it is almost certainly the strongest team he has
fired at the meeting for a very long time, probably ever.
Most of the big guns are entered - DOUVAN, VAUTOUR, DJAKADAM, DON POLI, ANNIE POWER, NICHOLLS CANYON, VROUM VROUM MAG, UN DE SCEAUX - but how many of them can realistically be expected to do the Cheltenham/Aintree
double?
Is there a chance he could more than double the tally of his Aintree festival winners?
Well yes,
I guess there is.
But in truth I sincerely hope he doesn't.
He doesn't feature in my five trainer mini-angles that I'm planning on tackling the three days with and I'd be grateful if Mr Mullins didn't ruin my party!
The five mini-angles have collectively struck at a whopping 49% in the past six years and have pulled in profits of +£209.08 to Betfair SP (to £1 stakes).
These mini-angles, along with my usual in-depth race analysis guides (eleven races covered by myself over the three days), form the front-line off my Aintree assault.
Current NTF members already know what the angles are and I'll be highlighting the qualifiers each day in the NTF Members Area.
