Willie Mullins’ French Import Favored for Betfair Hurdle at Newbury on Saturday

The French import, owned by Simon Munir and Isaac Souede, will be aiming to maintain Mullins’ magic run after his success in winning all eight Grade 1s at the Dublin Racing Festival on Saturday and Sunday. The trainer has Alviniy and Onlyamatteroftime as potential runners. Mullins has never won the £155,000 Betfair Hurdle, which is the richest race of its type in Britain, but that has not stopped his potential raider heading the betting.
