Willie Mullins pursues title with El Fabiolo, Gaelic Warrior and Impaire Et Passe at Sandown
The trainer has entered five horses in the bet365 Celebration Chase, which is the only Grade 1 race on the card. The competing horses include El Fabiolo, Gaelic Warrior, Appreciate It, Dysart Dynamo, and Saint Sam.
The opposition may include defending champion Jonbon and Champion Chase winner Captain Guinness. In the bet365 Oaksey Chase, Appreciate It, Asterion Forlonge, Bachasson, Easy Game, and James Du Berlais will be facing the challenge with Paul Nicholls entering Hitman and Dan Skelton with Flegmatik, Sail Away, and Harper’s Brook.
For the bet365 Select Hurdle, Impaire Et Passe leads the Mullins raiders with entries from Skelton-trained Kateira, Langer Dan, My Drogo, and West Balboa. Nicholls could potentially send Blueking D’Oroux.
The final jumps race of the season, the 2m4f handicap hurdle, features five Mullins-trained entries, including Sa Majeste. The 2m novice championship final, a race with qualification requirements, does not include a Mullins runner.
Nicholls and Skelton have their main hopes in Fire Flyer and Goonhilly, respectively. Racing Post offers the best promotions, all in one place.
