Mullins reveals big team for Cheltenham Willie Mullins looks set to send as many as 22 runners to next week's Cheltenham Festival. The Carlow based handler has "eight or ten" possibles for the Cheltenham Bumper, in which he has 14 entries. "The horses in the bumper are all for individual owners who have aspirations to run at Cheltenham," said Mullins. Mikael D'Haguenet holds entries in all three novice hurdle events and Mullins will delay a decision on which race to aim him at. "We left him in the Supreme Novice just in case we get rain." Kempes has been confirmed for the Supreme Novices with Ruby Walsh booked to ride. Mullins also revealed that Paul Townend will get the leg up on Ebaziyan in the Champion Hurdle.
