Winter must be on its way as Willie and Emmet Mullins target Cesarewitch and the Silver Trophy takes centre stage at Chepstow
The betting suggests Saturday's Cesarewitch (3.40) is likely to be won by a Mullins, with the all-conquering Willie and his nephew Emmet responsible for the top two in the market.
Willie Mullins is bidding for his fourth success in the 2m2f handicap sponsored by Godolphin, having saddled his first runner in the race when Tryphaena finished fourth under Franny Norton in 2000.
The Closutton maestro did not return for the autumn stayers' contest until 2014 and was successful for the first time with Low Sun four years later. Low Sun kicked off a Cesarewitch hat-trick for Mullins, who struck with Stratum in 2019 and his sole runner Great White Shark in 2020.
