Mullins planning Newbury raid

Seamus Mullins expects to be three-handed in the £50,000 (€73,000) John Smith’s/EBF Mares’ Only ‘National Hunt’ Novices’ Hurdle Final at Newbury on Saturday.

The Salisbury trainer is considering the two-mile-five-furlong event for Miss Doublet, winner of the Exeter qualifier, plus Ballyhoo and Lets Get Busy.
