Willie Mullins reveals the one who could give him a fifth straight mares' novice
Dylan Hill's weekly round-up of the horses to follow handpicked by the trainers
Willie Mullins was among the final batch of trainers who this week picked out two horses from their stable for Racing Post members to stick in their horse tracker – and one in particular catches the eye.
Mullins has won all four runnings of the mares' novice hurdle at the Cheltenham Festival and one of his two picks, Lamarckise, has been earmarked for the race this season.
