FormscanBy Gary Carson - Willie Mullins has dominated this race in recent years and it's interesting that Patrick Mullins sides with Gowran winner TULLYHILL. There was plenty of buzz about the Martaline gelding before his racecourse debut last month and he looked very smart when winning without coming off the bridle. The runner-up went on to frank that form and Mullins spoke very highly of the grey afterwards. Obviously on the book A Dream To Share is the one to beat after his Cheltenham success. He was a good winner of the Champion Bumper and had a few of these in behind that day. It wouldn't be a surprise if It's For Me got a bit more involved now. He was held up well off the pace last month before staying on to finish fifth and was reported to have run too freely.
