Seeks a hat-trick in this and it looks easier than the previous renewals he's captured
3	Hamlet's Night Bay J:James Bowen T:James Owen	J:James Bowen T:James Owen	156	—	2112	129	135	82	14d	—	—	+31	40.9	—	8/1 11%
Perhaps flattered by his proximity to the winner at Cheltenham but going the right way
4	Tax For Max Bay J:Kevin Brogan T:Nigel & Willy Twiston-Davies	J:Kevin Brogan T:Nigel & Willy Twiston-Davies	156	t	/16/03	126	137	89	21d	—	—	+16	20.1	—	20/1 5%
Smart at best for Willie Mullins but some way below par in two runs for current yard

Not in the best of form and has to rate the least likely winner of today's four runners
