Late on Tuesday afternoon, the run to the end of the 2022/23 National Hunt season will kick off in Punchestown. It's my local festival and one I always look forward to, but I don't doubt some of you will feel it has become dominated by one yard.
It has, but that is not Willie Mullins’ fault, as he has built a team of horses over many years and follows the same route from November to April.
