Mullins looks to 'canter away' with Faugheen Willie Mullins is keen to keep Faugheen active instead of giving him a long break. The former Champion Hurdle winner has spent a long time on the sidelines but has been in training for much of this season. He won the Cheltenham crown in 2015 but has been out of action since producing a scintillating performance in the Irish Champion Hurdle at Leopardstown in January of last year. "I don't know whether I'm going to put him out to a summer's grass, I haven't discussed it yet, but he's as big as a float at home," Mullins told At The Races. "He's hacking away and I think if I put him out for a summer's grass, he's going to come in like a Clydesdale or something like that. "I'm wondering if we should just keep him going all season, canter away and maybe just give him a mini-break. He doesn't need a break at this minute to look at him."
