WILLIE Mullins has entered a team of 14 horses for the Weatherbys Champion Bumper at Cheltenham, a race the trainer has won 12 times in the past.

His 2023 entry includes the general 3/1 favourite It's For Me, an impressive winner of his sole start at Navan.

Simon Munir and Isaac Souede, owners of It's For Me, also have third favourite Fun Fun Fun with Mullins and this recent Grade 2 Leopardstown winner is a 7/1 shot with most bookies.

Dividing that pair in the market is A Dream To Share, another Leopardstown Grade 2 winner. Trained by John Kiely, A Dream To Share has been bought by owner J.P. McManus since his Dublin Racing Festival success.

The Mullins-trained Billaway heads 35 entries for the St James's Place Festival Hunters' Chase. Winner of the race last year by a neck, and also a winner at Punchestown, Billaway was unimpressive when scoring at Naas two weeks ago and is generally fourth favourite in the betting for this year's race behind the David Christie-trained trio of Vaucelet, Ferns Lock and Winged Leader.

Gordon Elliott has a strong hand in the Glenfarclas Cross Country Chase. His four entries include last year's winner Delta Work and the Grade 1 winner Galvin. They head the market at even-money and 5/2 respectively.
